{"product_id":"music-for-a-king-coburn-freer-9781421436913","title":"Music for a King: George Herbert's Style and the Metrical Psalms","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1972. This book tries to study the affinities in form and matter between the versified translation of the Psalms and George Herbert's lyrics. Coburn Freer reads Herbert's poetry by way of the metrical psalms that precede it, proposing a reading that could be applied to more poems than are discussed here. Rather than multiply examples needlessly, this book stresses a few central poems as models or representatives. This reading of Herbert recognizes the historical dimension of his poems, but the author does not make that dimension the only significant one in the determination of poetic meaning or value.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Coburn Freer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1421436914\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781421436913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Johns Hopkins University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.62d","brand":"Coburn Freer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44129786626303,"sku":"9781421436913","price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5be8c0b2-3aaf-47cf-9865-1f26bae3aae7.jpg?v=1687465797","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/music-for-a-king-coburn-freer-9781421436913","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
