Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, University of Dusseldorf "Heinrich Heine" (Anglistisches Institut II - Abteilung für Amerika-Studien), course: American Nature Poetry: From The Puritans To The Present, language: English, abstract: Table of Content: 1.

Turning Around – A Sacramental View on Nature 3.3. Towards a Pessimistic View on Nature 4. Concluding Remarks 5. References 1. Introduction: Emily Dickinson is without doubt one of America’s most interesting and fascinating authors, especially with regard to her quite extravagant vita, living secluded from the public for the majority of her life and not even leaving her house. Confining herself exclusively to poetry, she has created poems of marvellous emotional impact and this especially holds true for her poetry dealing with nature. As there is hardly any poem on nature by her that does not have allusions to or is combined with religious themes, it makes this branch of her work even more interesting to deal with. But to be able to grasp all the allusions Dickinson has made to religion in various ways, her Calvinist-based church and the like, it is necessary to have an insight into her religious life, which is why a brief outline of her religious vita stands at the beginning of this paper. There are many writings which deal with Dickinson’s faith and the religious topics in her work – among them those used as references in this paper like the works by Doyle, Klein and Knapp, for instance. Jane Donahue Eberwein, a well-respected Dickinson specialist, puts a lot of emphasis on Dickinson’s poetry with regard to the poet’s Calvinist heritage in her writings, all of which are worth reading. One can find references to religion in more than only Dickinson’s nature poems, for example her poems on the life of Christ, but I will exclusively deal with her poems on nature, primarily focusing on “her quest for knowledge of the divine” , as Grimes puts it, and how this is reflected in her poetry. A few poems shall be exemplary for this and will be commented on. However, each of them will not be analyzed in too much detail. First and foremost, the main goal is to give an overview on how Dickinson refers to the deity through her poetry and how this view on the divine and (parallely) on nature changes over the course of her life.

Download or read book Some Glad Morning written by Barbara Crooker and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some Glad Morning, Barbara Crooker’s ninth book of poetry, teeters between joy and despair, faith and doubt, the disconnect between lived experience and the written word. Primarily a lyric poet, Crooker is in love with the beauty and mystery of the natural world, even as she recognizes its fragility. But she is also a poet unafraid to write about the consequences of our politics, the great divide. She writes as well about art, with ekphrastic poems on paintings by Hopper, O’Keeffe, Renoir, Matisse, Cézanne, and others. Many of the poems are elegaic in tone, an older writer tallying up her losses. Her work embodies Bruce Springsteen’s dictum, “it ain’t no sin to be glad we’re alive,” as she celebrates the explosion of spring peonies, chocolate mousse, a good martini, hummingbirds’ flashy metallics, the pewter light of September, Darryl Dawkins (late NBA star), saltine crackers. While she recognizes it might all be about to slip away, “Remember that nothing is ever lost,” she writes, and somehow, we do.
Download or read book How Great Thou Art written by David L. Coulter and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the gentle hand of an experienced master, this collection of American poetry explores the timeless themes of nature and faith. The collection is filled with Biblical and literary references based on a lifetime of scholarship and reflection. How Great Thou Art is a collection of poems and other writings by David L. Coulter, MD, compiled over his lifetime. Each of the four poetry sections explores the interrelated themes of nature, faith and spirituality based on Coulter's life and his growing, changing relationship with the physical and spiritual worlds. The first section, The Almanack of Faith, joins the cycles of the year to the cycles of human life in a testament to the power of faith in coping with all that we face while living our lives. The second, Syllogisms of Faith, updates Thomistic and Aristotelian philosophies in order to create a new vision of spirituality that is based on an intimate relationship with the greatness and wonders of the natural world. The third section, Nature, Faith, and Spirituality, presents a variety of poems that capture the author's reflections on these interconnected themes over his lifetime. The poems are sometimes playful and full of joy, other times deep and dark, but are always based on the author's own experiences and his pilgrim's journey of faith. The last poetry section, Youthful Intimations, is a happy return to Coulter's childhood and demonstrates the beginning of his lifelong love of verse. The forgivable immaturity of these poems shows the origin of his love of nature and the spirit. This section is also meant to encourage children and adolescents to have fun writing poems and to maintain their love of poetry when they grow up. A concluding section sets out four inspirational lay sermons Coulter has delivered concerning Franciscan nature mysticism, dealing with mortality, celebrating disability and a new approach to understanding good and evil. This section also includes a story he wrote in high school that addresses the problem of racism with a discussion of themes that continue to challenge all of us today. Read reflect, contemplate, enjoy-and discover a new wisdom.
