George Herbert and the Mystery of the Word: Poetry and Scripture in Seventeenth-Century England 1st ed. 2017 edition
Gary Kuchar
Situating Herbert's work in the context of shifting ideas of biblical mystery, Gary Kuchar shows how Herbert negotiated two competing impulses within post-reformation thought-two contrary aspects of reformation spirituality as he inherited it: the impulse to certainty, assurance, and security and the impulse to mystery, wonder, and wise ignorance.
