A Study of George Herbert's Poetics of Virtue
by Wu Hong
About This Novel
George Herbert (1593-1633) was a poet with outstanding intelligence. The unique charm of Herbert's poetry lies in the fact that he integrated the praise of traditional virtues with the ineffable expression of God. He used gentle, humble, beautiful and imaginative lines to criticize the faults of individual behavior, social behavior and Christian life in British society at that time, and put forward his own poetic understanding. This book takes the two works of the British poet Herbert, "The Temple" and "The Village Priest" as the starting point, focusing on the relationship between their religious characteristics and virtue thoughts. On the basis of analyzing the religious attributes of Herbert's poetry, it attempts to explore the unique virtue thoughts contained in Herbert's poetry and prose, explore Herbert's religious value orientation and the poetic expression method for interpreting virtue thoughts.
