THEOLOGICAL POETRY BY LUIS CRUZ-VILLALOBOS.Three books of poetry: 'Eroga Tau. The accused poet opens his wings'; 'Haikus to Heaven'; and 'Pauper God. Theographies'. Poems with a clear style and deep themes, now translated into English, by a Chilean poet, Luis Cruz-Villalobos, who is also a Protestant minister, clinical psychologist, and theologian of Latin American Theological Fraternity. The book opens with a preface by prominent contemporary philosopher, John D. Caputo." ...] when Luis Cruz-Villalobos entitles his book Theological Poetry, when he sets about to bring the theological matter to poetic word, he is not engaged in a work of ornamentation. He has struck the deepest root and touched the most ancient nerve of theology, which is that theology is poetry before it is doctrine; that is world-creation before it is creed; that it is poiesis before it is hardened over into a logic; that it breathes the words of life and death, of suffering and joy, before it allows its words to succumb to the formularies of orthodoxy and its canons" (foreword, p.15).
