Hopkins' Achieved Self

By David Anthony Downes

This work explores the hermeneutics of Gerard Manley Hopkins's notions of the self, applying his ideas of selving to his poetry. The author applies Paul Ricoeur's notions of the human self to Hopkins's work and then surveys his religious poetry to exhibit the creative dynamic of selving.
