This study of six canonical early modern lyric poets traces the literary afterlife of what was one of the greatest doctrinal shifts in English history. Sophie Read argues that the move from a literal to a figurative understanding of the phrase 'this is my body' exerted a powerful imaginative pull on successive generations. To illustrate this, she examines in detail the work of Southwell, Donne, Herbert, Crashaw, Vaughan and Milton, who between them represent a broad range of doctrinal and confessional positions, from the Jesuit Southwell to Milton's heterodox Puritanism. Individually, each chapter examines how Eucharistic ideas are expressed through a particular rhetorical trope; together, they illuminate the continued importance of the Eucharist's transformation well into the seventeenth century - not simply as a matter of doctrine, but as a rhetorical and poetic mode. 410 0$aIdeas in context ;$v104. 517 3 $aEucharist & the Poetic Imagination in Early Modern England 606 $aEnglish poetry$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aTransubstantiation in literature 606 $aReligion in literature 615 0$aEnglish poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aTransubstantiation in literature. 615 0$aReligion in literature. 676 $a821.009/382 700 $aRead$b Sophie$f1978-$01515225 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786033803321 996 $aEucharist and the poetic imagination in early modern England$93750864 997 $aUNINA
