MoreLong description:
Examining the profound influence of biblical themes on contemporary poetry written in English, this book explores the work of Brooks Haxton, Suji Kwock Kim, Kevin Hart, and Li-Young Lee.
Going beyond a mere examination of literary works, it considers how the presence of biblical references shapes and transforms contemporary Anglo-American poetry in unique and compelling ways. It argues that these poets' engagement with the biblical text transcends spirituality and cultural identity to constitute a form of theology deeply rooted in specific denominational concerns, situating the poets in relation to Romantic and Modernist antecedents and addressing the cyclical, political, and poetic dimensions of their work.
