About The Book

Englishliterature scholars have long recognized George Herberts frequent allusions to the psalms in his earlyseventeenthcentury poetry especially in his collection called The Temple. Biblical scholars have long attempted to categorize the Hebrew psalms according to one overarching principle or another. Most discussions of Herberts psalmic borrowings are restricted to explication of individual poems often with reference to the poets own psychology physical health family occupations and sociocultural context. The current study adds another dimension to the dialogue by examining Herberts varying degrees of psalmic reference within categories established by biblical scholars. The resulting data make a case for considering Herberts subcollection called The Church to be his psalter offering a particularly intriguing comparison between one of Herberts lesscommonlydiscussed poems and Psalm 82 one of the biblical collections most dramatic works.
