Re-Reading Thomas Traherne

"This volume of essays is the first ever devoted to the poetry and prose of the seventeenth-century writer Thomas Traherne. Discovered only at the turn of the twentieth century, Traherne's work has been understudied and often misunderstood; the nine essays in this collection, using various approaches and dealing with various texts (including the most recently found Traherne manuscripts) attempt to show the complexity of Traherne's work by placing it directly within current critical debates and within seventeenth-century contexts seldom addressed with regards to Traherne. This volume will be of interest to students and scholars of Traherne, metaphysical poetry, meditative writing, and religious writing in general as it brings Traherne criticism up to date and establishes him as a significant figure in seventeenth-century studies."--book jacket.
