American Poets And Their Theology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781430446828)

American Poets and Their Theology is a book written by Augustus Hopkins Strong, a theologian and professor of theology at the Rochester Theological Seminary. The book explores the theological beliefs and perspectives of several notable American poets, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, and Robert Frost. The author examines the ways in which these poets' theology influenced their poetry and how their poetry, in turn, reflected their theological beliefs. Strong analyzes the themes and motifs that appear in the poetry of each poet, such as the concept of God, the nature of humanity, and the role of religion in society. Through his analysis, Strong provides insight into the relationship between poetry and theology and sheds light on the ways in which these two disciplines intersect and inform one another. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the intersection of literature and theology, as well as for those interested in the works of the American poets discussed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
