The Vine of Life Distilleth Drops of Grace: Poetics of Accommodation in the Poems of Robert Southwell

Original language description

The present article discusses the poetics of accommodation in the English poems of Robert Southwell (ca. 1561-1595). Southwell's understanding of poetry is closely related to his understanding of the divine accommodation, i.e., the communication of the Christian idea of revelation in a way accessible and suited to humanity. The article explores this theme in relation to the contemporary literary theory (Sir Philip Sidney and various Jesuit treatises), and analyses the actual poetics emphasising the nature of God's agape and the emotional appeal of Southwell's devotional verse. The conclusion summarizes the specific achievement of Southwell's poetry.
