Description
GERARD MANLEY HOPKINS (1844-1889) was an English poet and Jesuit priest whose work is recognized as among the most original literary accomplishments of his century, and had a marked influence on such leading 20th-century poets as T.S. Eliot, Dylan Thomas, W.H. Auden, Stephen Spender and C. Day Lewis. No staid, conventional Victorian, Hopkins sought to rejuvenate poetic language. His exploitation of the verbal subtleties and music of English, of the use of echo, alliteration, and repetition, and a highly compressed syntax were all in the interest of projecting deep personal experiences, including his sense of God's mystery, grandeur, and mercy, and his joy in "all things counter, original, spare, strange," as he wrote in "Pied Beauty." He regularly placed familiar words into new and surprising contexts, and often employed compound and unusual word combinations. The result is a muscular verse, flexible, intense, vibrant, and organic, that combines accuracy of observation, imaginative daring, deep feeling, and intellectual depth.
Hopkins' prose and letters reveal a brilliant critical faculty, scrupulous self-criticism, generous humanity, and a strong will. His friends paid tribute to his personal integrity and to his rare "chastity of mind." Coventry Patmore wrote of him: "There was something in all his words and manners which were at once a rebuke and an attraction to all who could only aspire to be like him."
