Donne's Religious Writing: A Discourse of Feigned Devotion (Longman Medieval and Renaissance Library Series)

By Paul Oliver and Paul M. Oliver

This, the first book to focus solely on Donne's religious writing, also places his work in a literary context and attempts to reach a more realistic assessment of its originality than has been possible hitherto. The prose works that are examined in detail include the controversial treatises Bianthanatos and Pseudo-Martyr, the satirical Ignatius His Conclave, the much-quoted Essays and Devotions and, of course, Donne's sermons.
