Description
Summary:James Charlton crosses the disciplines of poetry and theology. As a published and acclaimed poet with a strong interest in interreligious dialogue he is in a good position to do this. In this his first theological or rather ‘theopoetic’ book he looks at non-dualism in the Christian tradition: the sense of union in diversity between humanity and God and overflowing from that the union in diversity of all creation in God. Charlton musters up other writers from the Christian tradition who have pointed to such a holistic vision. He is strongest in his treatment of Traherne, whose style certainly was theopoetic.
