David Jones and the Craft of Theology: Becoming Beauty

by Elizabeth Powell

Book Overview

This is an imaginative exploration of the art of David Jones which addresses Christian teaching through engagement with selected artistic works: a poem, a painted inscription and a wood engraving. Elizabeth R. Powell's study does not just enable readers to understand Jones but also to use his kind of loving attention in their own lives - which, Jones would argue, is theology's most important task.
