Download or read book John Donne s Sermons on the Psalms and Gospels written by John Donne and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1963 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The glory of John Donne's prose at its best is very different from that of his verse, but is equal to it; and there can be no question that his best prose is in his sermons. His sense of form and arrangement, his psychological insight, his differences of mood and emphasis, and his religious fervor will make this selection of ten sermons particularly interesting to the attentive reader familiar with Donne's poetry.

Book John Donne s 1622 Gunpowder Plot Sermon

Download or read book John Donne s 1622 Gunpowder Plot Sermon written by John Donne and published by Pittsburgh, Pa. : Duquesne University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The implications of Shami's discovery are profound. Transcribed immediately after Donne delivered the sermon on November 5, 1622, this manuscript version and its corrections give us important new information about Donne's habits of composition and revision. In addition, the existence of an authorial manuscript version requires us to reconsider the textual status of George Potter and Evelyn Simpson's ten-volume California edition of Donne's sermons published in 1962. Their edition has, to date, been relied upon as "definitive." Potter and Simpson's version was based on the only printed version of this sermon in Fifty Sermons, printed in 1649.

Book Donne at Sermons

  • Author : Gale H. Carrithers
  • Publisher : State University of New York Press
  • Release : 1972-06-30
  • ISBN : 0791498530
  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book Donne at Sermons written by Gale H. Carrithers and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1972-06-30 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Donne at Sermons, Gale Carrithers uncovers the theocentric existentialism that underlies the content and structure of the great poet-preacher's sermons. After considering Donne's grand strategies within the generic form of the sermon, the author gives detailed expositions of four individual sermons, moving freely from Donne's ontology to his nimble metaphor. Initially, this study defines the genre of sermon and considers how to evaluate its literary or artistic success. The author places the sermon in its actual setting, both in a physical church and in church liturgy. Here Carrithers makes use of present-day ideas concerning sound in space, concepts which he also utilizes when he anatomizes the role and purpose of the preacher. The author stresses how Donne could give great immediacy to his discourse through his actual participation as preacher—not only as speaker of the sermon, but as a character in its substance as well. Still viewing the sermons as one homogeneous body, Carrithers examines the assumptions that animate them. Once he has shown that religion can be defined as existential, the author points out how Donne's ontology fits such an existential pattern and how this limited form of relativism permeates the sermons from their structural framework down to the individual metaphoric formulations. When he turns to consider individual sermons, the author demonstrates this thesis most convincingly. In conclusion he notes that many of the admirable qualities which characterize Donne's other works are present in his sermonic discourse, but that these are augmented by the sermon's liturgical significance and the special interaction that takes place between the speaking minister and the listening congregation. The four sermons discussed follow the author's analysis to provide the reader with texts.

Book Donne s Sermons

  • Author : Logan Pearsall Smith
  • Publisher : Forgotten Books
  • Release : 2018-01-23
  • ISBN : 9780483752214

Download or read book Donne s Sermons written by Logan Pearsall Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Donne's Sermons: Selected Passages, With an Essay John Donne is one that has attracted a good deal of attention in recent years; his life has been studied, his poems and letters carefully edited, his character analysed, and his position as a poet acutely debated. His harshness, his crabbed and often frigid way of writing, his forced conceits, his cynicism and sensuality, are extremely repellent to some readers while to others his subtlety, his realism, and a certain modern and intimate quality in his poems, illuminated as they are with Splendid flashes of imaginative fire, possess an extraordinary interest and fascination. There are people who hate Donne; there are others who love him, but there are very few who have read his poems and remain quite indifferent to him. His character is still a puzzle, his reputation as a poet, eclipsed for a long time and only revived in our own day, is by no means yet the subject of final agreement.

Book John Donne s Performances

Download or read book John Donne s Performances written by Margret Fetzer and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since their rediscovery in the 1920s, John Donne's writings have been praised for their energy, vigour and drama – yet so far, no attempt has been made to approach and define systematically these major characteristics of his work. Drawing on J. L. Austin's speech act theory, Margret Fetzer's comparative reading of Donne's poetry and prose eschews questions of personal or religious sincerity and instead recreates an image of John Donne as a man of many performances. No matter if engaged in the writing of a sermon or a piece of erotic poetry, Donne placed enormous trust in what words could do. Questions as to how saying something may actually bring about that very thing, or how playing the part of someone else affects an actor's identity, are central to Donne's oeuvre – and moreover highly relevant in the cultural and theological contexts of the early modern period in general. In treating both canonical and lesser known Donne texts, John Donne's Performances hopes to make a significant contribution not only to Donne criticism and research into early modern culture: by using concepts of performance and performativity as its major theoretical backdrop, it aims to establish an interdisciplinary link with the field of performance studies.
