Gerard Manley Hopkins

    28 luglio 1844 – 8 giugno 1889

    Gerard Manley Hopkins si affermò postumo come uno dei principali poeti vittoriani grazie alle sue esplorazioni sperimentali nella metrica e all'audace uso dell'immaginario. Fu un audace innovatore, che spinse i confini del verso in un periodo spesso caratterizzato da forme tradizionali. Il suo approccio unico al ritmo e al linguaggio rivelò nuove possibilità all'interno della poesia. Le profonde opere liriche di Hopkins continuano a risuonare tra i lettori che cercano versi distintivi e che infrangono le barriere.

    • Gerard Manley Hopkins is one of English poetry's most brilliant stylistic innovators, and one of the most distinguished poets of any age. However, during his lifetime he was known not as a poet but as a Jesuit priest, and his faith was essential to his work. His writings combine an intense feeling for nature with an ecstatic awareness of its divine origins, most remarkably expressed in his magnificent and highly original 'sprung rhythm.'This collection contains not only all of Hopkins’ significant poetry, but also selections from his journals, sermons, and letters, all chosen for their spiritual guidance and insight. Hopkins didn't allow the publication of most of his poems during his lifetime, so his genius was not appreciated until after his death. Now, more than a hundred years later, his words are still a source of inspiration and sheer infectious joy in the radiance of God's creation.

      The Wreck of the Deutschland was inspired by the Deutschland incident, a naval disaster in which 157 people died, including five Franciscan nuns who had been leaving Germany due to harsh anti-Catholic laws.With his first major poem, Gerard Manley Hopkins began to give voice to his relationship with God, with nature and with truth. Writing for a few close friends, he was able to experiment very personally with language, creating what he termed 'sprung rhyme' -- a dramatic and eccentric idiom in which casual words explode into significance.
