Description: "Unknown as a poet at his death in 1889, Gerard Manley Hopkins is now hailed as one of the finest poets of Victorian England. He is particularly notable as a poet of nature and ecology, of psychological anguish, and of religion. A Jesuit priest and master of word and sound, Gerard Hopkins has won poetic fame throughout the world, even in such unlikely lands as Japan and Israel.".

"Hopkins Variations celebrates this fame with essays from women and men of thirteen countries on four continents: Australia, Canada, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Poland, Scotland, and the United States. The fifty-five writers are highly diverse: poets, actors, professors of literature, graduate students, translators, theologians, an artist, a philosopher, a novelist, and a composer."--BOOK JACKET.
