Studies in the poetry : the prosody and the poetic theory of Gerard Manley Hopkins / Prosody and the poetic theory of Gerard Manley Hopkins

Jennings, Maude M. J. 03 June 2011 (has links)
This dissertation studies the prosody, poetic theory, theme, and affective nature found in the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins. The prosody, striking in his time, is still controversial; the theory employs the rhetorical principle of parallelism extensively, and the theme (which is the reason for the affective nature of his work) deals always with Christ: Christ in nature and Christ in man.The study lays emphasis on Hopkins' religious vision. These insights pervade all his work and are prime factors in his poetry. The vision gained from his religion appears throughout all his work.Although recent critics have suggested that the material of his great ode, "The Wreck of the Deutschland" was "recalcitrant" and that his symmetry was "laboured," explication of the poem reveals his early intense voice, sprung rhythm, and his use of the techniques of cynghanedd and dysfalu. His prosody reveals his sense of parallel structure (noted in his art work and in his journals as symmetry) which increased with "number and distinctiveness" with the rise of passion.His "dark night," noted in the sonnets written during 1884-85, have caused some readers to suspect a crisis of faith occurring. Hopkins experienced trauma, but the prolonged depression suggested by the present numbering of the sonnets is inconsistent with his unquestioned faith. The night becomes less dark if chronology is followed.Hopkins' deepest message was delivered in his poetry and throughout his life. As a Catholic priest, teacher, and poet, he sought Christ. Common knowledge informs us that emotional and physical hardships follow such seekers. Teilhard de Chardin's philosophy as ennobling is certainly applicable to any study of Hopkins' life and works. This philosophy provides supplementary confirmation of the poet. Hopkins' achievements surpass the prescriptive condemners of his art.

Gerard Manley Hopkins' use of nature in his poetry

Cafferata, Florence January 1962 (has links)
Since 1930, critics have given wide attention to the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins. Some of these critics have discussed the nature element in Hopkins’ poetry; but, generally, they have considered the nature imagery as one of the less important elements of Hopkins' work, confining their criticism to general statements, or limiting their discussion to one, or to a very few, of Hopkins' poems. This thesis attempts to go beyond these generalities. By a thorough investigation of Hopkins' use of nature, it attempts to show that nature imagery constitutes one of the major unifying elements of his poetry. Special attention will be given to the discussion of the "terrible sonnets" whose nature imagery may be said to synthesize the anguish of soul which prompted the poet to write these sonnets. Three groups of poems exemplify nature imagery as a unifying element in Hopkins' poetry: Hopkins' simple nature poetry, his poetry of praise, and the "terrible sonnets." In his simple nature poetry, Hopkins, by expressing his concept of the beauty of nature, allows the reader to share this vision of beauty with him. In the poetry of praise, Hopkins uses nature imagery to express one consistent theme, or "underthought"-- the grandeur of God and man's consequent duty of praise. The "terrible sonnets" celebrate God's power, His justice and His mercy. These seven poems of poignant beauty are Hopkins' expression of the terrible sufferings of the spiritual "nights" in which the only source of hope is God's mercy. The nature imagery in each of these groups is closely connected with Hopkins' poetic theories of inscape and instress. Hopkins considered that the essence of the object is to be found in its individual distinctiveness. Closely connected with the teachings of Duns Scotus, this philosophy provided Hopkins with a basis for his theories of inscape and instress, the key concepts of Hopkins' poetry. In inscape, the intuitive glance which follows the sensuous perception of the object allows the beholder to see its individually distinctive essence. The word "instress" is used by Hopkins to mean two different principles. At times, "instress" is used to express the principle of actuality of the object; at other times, to define the total effect which an individual inscape produces upon the one who sees it. Hopkins' poetic techniques are a natural result of his theories of inscape and instress. In an effort to express inscape accurately he sought to reproduce in his poetry exactly what he saw and what he heard. He called into play all the resources of language, of nature imagery, of poetic techniques and of prosody which he could command; and he produced a poetry which is at once dynamic, original, and beautiful. An understanding of Hopkins' theology of nature is also basic to the correct interpretation of his poetry. To Hopkins, all nature is a manifestation, an "utterance" of God; each separate object "utters" God in its own individual way. This sacramental view of nature was the result of Hopkins' unique ability to see things at once on both a natural and a supernatural level. He expresses the "underthought" of God, or of man's relations to God, by means of the "overthought" of nature. Nature imagery is, therefore, one of the principled unifying elements of Hopkins' poetry. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate
