How We Experience Modern Verse
Author: Eric Purchase
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000861252
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
Poetry moves us. Sometimes a poem changes our life. Then we analyze it as a cultural artifact with no special connection to us. An extensive critical apparatus enables us to develop sophisticated interpretations, but we dismiss as "idiosyncratic" even life-changing experiences of poetry. We need an apparatus to unfold our experience of reading poems into a more effective relationship with the world. Modern poets in particular wrote prophetic verse for this purpose. Archetypal psychology and phenomenology describe the soul that modern poetry moves in us. Three prosodic mechanisms activate the psyche. The polyphony of accentual and quantitative versification creates depth to lure the soul. Aural images reshape the reader’s stream of consciousness. Readers follow the movement of blocks of verse across the expanse of the page with what Maurice Merleau-Ponty terms the phenomenal body. These mechanisms reach us at the collective level of consciousness and generate the power we need to solve big, collective challenges, such as race, climate change, and inequality.

John Henry Newman and the Imagination
Author: Bernard Dive
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567245616
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
For John Henry Newman, religion is animated by an imaginative 'master vision' which 'supplies the mind with spiritual life and peace'. All his life, Newman reflected on this 'master vision'. His reflections on the moral imagination developed out of his understanding of practical wisdom, as characterized by Aristotle – the wisdom that 'the good man' has in living a good life. For Newman, the vision at the core of religion completes and perfects the intuitions of the conscience. John Henry Newman and the Imagination looks at how Newman's understanding of the moral and visionary imagination developed over the course of his life; and it relates his ideas about the imagination to his portrayals of religious experience, and vision, in his novels and poetry.

Blessed Assurance? A Demonstration That Christian Fundamentalism Is Simply False
Author: Michael Tenenbaum
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 061515445X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
BLESSED ASSURANCE is a powerful and compelling book. Biblical errors are discussed with understanding of how Christian apologists and theologians think and respond. Extra attention is given to errors that are undeniable. I had yet to encounter several of them elsewhere. Tenenbaum's treatment is in depth yet readable. By the time you're done with the chapters on doctrine it will be clear that biblical Christianity is incoherent at its core. This book is as valuable for its communicating style and process of thinking as it is for the potent case it makes. It will help atheists better understand how Christians think and what sort of points are most likely to get thru to them. It will help Ex-Christians to reinforce their conclusion that the faith is false. It will help Christians to grow out of their faith, or perhaps strengthen it despite an avalanche of evidence. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
