S. K. Swarnkar Illustrator: . Gerard Manley Hopkins: A Critical Study, Atlantic Publishers & Distributors (P) Ltd 2005 ISBN: 9788126905478

New Hardcover . The present book, Gerard Manley Hopkins: A Critical Study, aims to introduce the readers to the universally acknowledged English poet G.M. Hopkins. Although not recognized in his times, his popularity has increased with the passing of years and today his poems are held in high esteem. His concept of poetry and poetic diction distinguished him from his contemporary Victorian poets. He has been held by many as belonging more to the twentieth century than the nineteenth, owing to his technical innovation and intense style. In his poetry, the rhythm of the verse has been perfectly fused with the flow and varying emphasis of spoken language. In fact, Hopkins skilfully united the rhythmical freedom of the Middle Ages, the religious intensity of the early seventeenth century, the response to nature of the early nineteenth, and he envisioned the twentieth century in challenging conventional encumbrances in poetic form. The present book makes an in-depth study of all the aspects of poetic art of Hopkins. Since HopkinsaEUR poems have been considered by many students of English literature as difficult to analyse, the book aims at providing a complete analytic exposition of his major works so as to induce interest in readers by enabling them to have an easy understanding of his poetic style and works. Beginning with a biographical sketch of the poet, the book elucidates his theory of poetry. His concepts of aEUR inscapeaEUR , aEUR instressaEUR , and aEUR sprung rhythmaEUR have been much discussed. The book acquaints the readers with HopkinsaEUR treatment of nature which has always been the background of his poems. A critical analysis of his major poems is another attraction of the present book. It is hoped that the book would be highly useful to the students and teachers of English literature. It will encourage the general readers to read the masterpiece works of G.M. Hopkins. Printed Pages: 152. 5th or later edition

A.J. Sebastian Sdb Illustrator: . The Poetry of G.M. Hopkins: An Ecological Study, Adhyayan Publishers & Distributors 2009 ISBN: 9788184351361

New Hardcover . Though G.M. Hopkins has remained obscure due to his innovative Experiments in verse, he is a fascinating poet. His poetic sensibility revolves around the inscape-instress of Things culminating in the Love of nature, man and God. The author has attempted an ecological reading of Hopkins since his writings are pivoted on the Nature-man-God relationship. This renders his poetry, sacramental in its praise and adoration of the Creator through His creation. As a poet and lover of Nature, he had much to say of the beauty of the Earth with the highest appreciation because he recognised God's handy-work and perceived His love in the flower, shrub and tree. The poet's relevance can't be undermined today, as we speak in terms of eco-friendly Relationship with Nature and man. Hopkins sang of it more than a century ago when he referred to 'Nature as News of God.' This Study is an attempt to delve into the poetic thrust in Hopkins and guide the readers through an understanding of the explosive Poetry of the Victorian Priest-Poet. As such this work proves Hopkins as a precursor of modern ecological concepts. Printed Pages: 297. 5th or later edition
