Scottish Poetry Drummond of Hawthornden to Ferguson : Lectures Delivered in the University of Glasgow (9781162731414)



This book is a facsimile reprint and may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. 1911. The aim of the following lectures is to trace the course of Scottish Poetry during a period which, so far as I am aware, has not hitherto been specially studied; the period, that is, which intervenes between the last followers of the old Scottish Makars and the National Revival of the Age of Burns and Scott. The temporary merging of Scottish in English Poetry, the speedy emergence of native characteristics, and the influence of the Separatist impulse generated by the Legislative Union, constitute the most noteworthy features of the time. Nor must the effect on native poetry of the nation's absorption in religious struggles and ideals be disregarded. Contents: William Drummond of Hawthornden; James Thomason; the Poet of Nature in an Artificial Age; Armstrong, Blair, Beattie, and Home; Allan Ramsay and Alexander Ross; and Robert Fergusson.

Sacred Journey (9781532698989)

This companion reveals Rudolf Schwarz to be one of the greatest theologians of the twentieth century. As a German architect and mystic he created some beautiful churches in a stripped-down 1930s-Modern style, but he is most revered for a single book-in English translation The Church Incarnate. In it he explores the relationships between God and God's people, relationships expressed when they meet together in worship. Schwarz is revered for his spiritual insights but it is sometimes hard to follow him on his mystical wanderings. This companion accompanies him on his sacred journey, gently guiding him back on track when he wanders off-course and keeping him cheerful. This journey has had a surprising outcome: a discovery that, embedded in its union of earth and heaven, is a practical and logical structure for the renewal of the church; renewal of its worship, space, and its ministry. Already several congregations seeking renewal have used these concepts to find clarity and direction ...
