Mystical Prayer
Angličtina

In this book, Charles Murphy explores the still unfolding rediscovery of Emily Dickinson (18301886), our foremost American poet, as a mystic of profound depth and ambition. She declined publication of almost all of her hundreds of poems during her lifetime, describing them as a record of her wrestling with God, who, in the Puritan religious tradition she received, she found cold and remote. Murphy places Dickinsons writings within the Christian mystical tradition exemplified by St. Teresa of Avila and identifies her poems as expressions of what he terms theologically as believing unbelief.' Dickinsons experiences of love and her confrontation with human mortality drove her poetic insightsand led to her discovery of God in the beauty and mystery of the natural world.
