Book excerpt: The Mount of Olives and Primitive Holiness is a biography of Paulinus of Nola, a 5th-century bishop and poet who is revered as a saint by the Catholic Church. Written by Louise Imogen Guiney in the late 19th century, this book traces Paulinus' journey from a life of wealth and privilege to a life of religious devotion and asceticism. Through careful analysis of Paulinus' writings and historical records, Guiney paints a vivid picture of the bishop's life and the era in which he lived.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mount of Olives: And Primitive Holiness Set Forth in the Life of Paulinus, Bishop of Nola The two brief devotional treatises contained in this volume are both new and old. They comprise all the published prose, excluding several masterly translations - all the original prose, that is - of a writer of long ago, who has now won inevitably, but very late, his secure place among English poets. Born a twin, near Brecon in southern Wales (siluria), April 17, 162 I, and becoming an Oxonian who stayed not at Oxford to take any degree Henry Vaughan was unlike the contemporary lyrists whom he loved, and at first kept step with: for he was in all a man of letters, a recluse scholar, and a patrician with a formed philosophy. He bore his loyal part in the Civil Wars. They cost him his promised career at the London Bar, and brought him severe grief, and severe loss; but his proud sincerity, and, with a far more potent operation, his intense religiousness, early taught him content under the conditions of a changed and circumscribed lot that of a home-keeper, a Welsh country physician.

Download or read book Keeping the Ancient Way written by Robert Wilcher and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by one of the editors of the new complete works of Henry Vaughan, Keeping the Ancient Way is the first book-length study of the poet by a single author for twenty years. It deals with a number of key topics that are central to the understanding and appreciation of this major seventeenth-century writer. These include his debt to the hermetic philosophy espoused by his twin brother (the alchemist, Thomas Vaughan); his royalist allegiance in the Civil War; his loyalty to the outlawed Church of England during the Interregnum; the unusual degree of intertextuality in his poetry (especially with the Scriptures and the devotional lyrics of George Herbert); and his literary treatment of the natural world (which has been variously interpreted from Christian, proto-Romantic, and ecological perspectives). Each of the chapters is self-contained and places its topic in relation to past and current critical debates, but the book is organized so that the biographical, intellectual, and political focus of Part One informs the discussion of poetic craftsmanship in Part Two. A wealth of historical information and close critical readings provide an accessible introduction to the poet and his period for students and general readers alike. The up-to-date scholarship will also be of interest to specialists in the literature and history of the Civil War and Interregnum.
