Brent is joined by Jennifer Holberg to talk about the poetry and life of the great Victorian poet Gerard Manley Hopkins.
Hopkins was no staid conventional Victorian but a poet-priest who used innovative language and form to communicate the spiritual essence of nature and things.
Jennifer is professor and chair of the English Department at Calvin University in the States and co-director of the Calvin Center for Faith and Writing. She’s also the author of the book ‘Nourishing Narratives’ and she thinks that Hopkins could be in the running for ‘the best Christian poet ever’.
