Description

Every Changing Shape, published in 1961 and now in paperback for the first time, considers from a Christian poet's perspective how religious or mystical experience informs the imagination.

Elizabeth Jennings wrote the book early in her career; it continues to provide crucial readings of her chosen authors and clues to her own poetry.

She avoids terms like 'inspiration', 'ecstasy', sticking to particulars - words, meanings - rather than ideology or theory.

A collection of studies of writers and mystics past and present, it brings literary judgment to bear on a subject neglected in a secular age.

Though her first concern is poetry, she draws on prose writers to effect her penetrating explorations.
