Worlds of Common Prayer

Liturgical Time and Poetic Re-enchantment, 1827-1935

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Worlds of Common Prayer exposes the surprisingly radical potential of nineteenth- and twentieth-century book-length liturgical poetry. Major authors as dissimilar as Christina Rossetti and T.S. Eliot used the Anglican liturgical calendar as a weapon to break the order of clock time and destabilize the secular world order.
