description: David Diversity in Unity demonstrates the coherence of Jones's work and examines the artistic, psychological and moral impetus behind Jones's quest for creative and spiritual integration.This collection brings together literary critics, art historians, writers on philosophy and religion, poets and a calligrapher in an interdisciplinary approach which addresses Jones's poetry, image-making, culture(s), geography, theology and philosophy. The essays not only offer new readings of Jones's published materials, but some also examine unpublished letters and manuscripts in order to understand better the varied range of Jones's literary and artistic production.David Diversity in Unity is the only book of critical studies to focus on the interaction of Jones's verbal and visual art, while at the same time demonstrating the wider cultural significance of his work. The essays are of a high scholarly standard, but are at the same time accessible to the nonspecialist and will appeal to readers interested in the literary and artistic history of twentieth-century England and Wales.
