Faith Doubt In The Centurys Poets PDF Download

Excerpt from Faith and Doubt in the Century's Poets The following chapters comprise lectures delivered to my own congregation on Sunday evenings. I have somewhat modified or enlarged one or two of them, but I have not sought to erase traces of oral delivery and direct address. In selecting six English poets representative of the religious Faith and Doubt which have contended for sway over the mind of our age, I may seem to have been somewhat arbitrary. But Byron's passionate nature little lent itself to the philosophic consideration of the profoundest themes, though Mr. Stopford Brooke has much to say on his influence in theology. Coleridge's considerable influence on religious thought was through his prose rather than his poems. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
