Download or read book The Playfulness of Gerard Manley Hopkins written by Joseph J. Feeney and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned Hopkins expert Joseph J. Feeney, SJ, offers a fresh take on Gerard Manley Hopkins that begins the next phase in Hopkins studies. In both his poetry and prose Feeney discovers a distinctive playfulness inextricably bound to Hopkins's creativity, style, and poetic competitiveness-even, strikingly, in The Wreck of the Deutschland and the Terrible Sonnets. No one who absorbs these radical readings will ever see his poems the same way.
