Gerard Manley Hopkins was born in 1844 at Stratford in Essex. After attending Highgate School, he entered Balliol College, Oxford, as an exhibitioner in 1863. Drawn into the religious controversy still active there, he was converted to Catholicism and upon graduation took a post as teacher in Newman's school, the Oratory, near Birmingham. The following year he decided to enter the Society of Jesus and burned copies of the poems he had written in symbolic dedication of himself to his new vocation. Two largely enjoyable years at the novitiate in London were followed by three spent in further study amidst the bleaker beauty of Lancashire. It was some years later, while Hopkins was studying theology in Wales, that he returned to poetic composition, writing in less than two years 'The Wreck of the Deutschland' and more than a dozen good short poems.

Closer to Dylan Thomas than Matthew Arnold in his 'creative violence' and insistence on the sound of poetry, [the author] was no staid, conventional Victorian. On entering the Society of Jesus at the age of twenty-four, he burnt all his poetry and 'resolved to write no more, as not belonging to my profession, unless by the wish of my superiors.' His verse is wrought from the creative tensions and paradoxes of a poet-priest who wanted to evoke the spiritual essence of nature sensuously, and to communicate this revelation in natural language and speech-rhythms while using condensed, innovative diction and all the skills of poetic artifice. Intense, vital, individual, his writing is the 'terrible crystal' through which the soul, the inscape, the nature of things, may be illuminated. -Back cover.

The conventional picture of the young Hopkins as a conservative High-Church ritualist is starkly contested by this study which draws upon his unpublished Oxford essays on philosophy to reveal a boldly speculative intellectual liberal. Less concerned with Christian factionalism than with countering contemporary threats to faith itself, Hopkins' thought is seen to follow that of his teachers Benjamin Jowett and T.H. Green, who turned to Kant and Hegel to vouchsafe the grounds of Christian belief against contemporary scientism. Hopkins' personal metaphysic of 'inscape' and 'instress', which has long been recognized as crucial to the understanding of his poetry, is traced here to concepts derived from the 'British Idealism' he encountered at Oxford and the new energy physics of the 1850s and 1860s. By locating his thought at the intellectual avant-garde of his age, the striking modernity of his poetry need no longer be seen as an historical anomaly.

"In Rhythm and Will in Victorian Poetry, Matthew Campbell explores the work of four Victorian poets - Tennyson, Browning, Hopkins and Hardy - as they show a consistent and innovative concern with questions of human agency and will. The Victorians saw the virtues attendant upon a strong will as central to themselves and to their culture, and Victorian poetry strove to find an aesthetic form to represent this sense of the human will. Through close study of the metre, rhyme and rhythm of a wide range of poems - including monologue, lyric and elegy - Campbell reveals how closely technical questions of poetics are related, in the work of these poets, to issues of psychology, ethics and social change. He goes on to discuss more general questions of poetics, and the implications of the achievement of the Victorian poets in a wider context, from Milton through Romanticism and into contemporary critical debate."--BOOK JACKET.
