Through the long and rich tradition of English poetry many poets have devoted their imaginative energy to God, belief, and seryice. The tradition weaves its way, altering, developing, questioning over the centuries. This book blends a series of essays on the major poets who focused on religion, with an invaluable anthology of the poems themselves from medieval times to the present. Here is The Dream of the Rood, George Herbert, John Donne, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Emily Dickinson to R. S. Thomas, and others. This book is a treasury of such poetry, and more, a study of the importance of poetry to our and every age. To lose poetry would be a great peril as it can, through its depth and breadth and honesty, be an impetus back towards faith in our common humanity.
