Devotions upon Emergent Occasions, Paperback / softback Book

Devotions upon Emergent Occasions Paperback / softback

Edited by John Sparrow

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published in 1923, this book contains an edition of John Donne's Devotions, which were first printed in 1624.

Donne wrote these passionate and 'unadorned' meditations during a severe sickness that he feared was life-threatening, and the text consequently provides an intimate portrait of Donne that is lacking from many of his other writings.

A brief biography of Donne and a bibliographical note are also provided.

This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the life and spirituality of John Donne or in his contributions to seventeenth-century religious thought.
