Description

A collection of studies published to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Hopkins' birth at Stratford, Essex, on July 28, 1844, examining the poet's life, work, and influence; his sources, beliefs, and associations. Throughout, the essays look at Hopkins in the light of our time and F.R. Leavis' remark of 60 years ago that Hopkins "is likely to prove, for our time and the future, the only influential poet of the Victorian Age, and he seems to me the greatest."
