Every Changing Shape

Meer over het boek

Excerpt from Every Changing Shape IN this book, I am concerned with three things the making of poems, the nature of mystical experience, and the relationship between the two. My examination of individual poets and mystics is, with one or two exceptions, a chronological one. This arrangement is for the sake of order and convenience rather than for any more profound reason. If there is, as I shall try to show, a connection between poetry and mysticism, then it will be found as easily in the fifth century in Italy as in the fourteenth century in England or the twentieth century in France.
