This book explores sacramental poetics through the lens of moderate
realism in the thought and work of Anglican theologians Richard
Hooker (c. 1554-1600) and George Herbert (1593-1648). It does this
in relation to the Christian sacraments of baptism and the
Eucharist and as a way of exploring the abundance of God. Brian
Douglas begins in chapter 1 with a general discussion of a
sacramental poetic and sacramentality in the Anglican tradition and
proceeds to a more detailed examination of the writings of both
Hooker (chapter 2) and Herbert (chapter 3). Each writer explores,
in their own way, abundant life, found as participation in and
relationship with Christ, and expressed as a sacramental poetic
based on moderate realism. Douglas goes on in chapter 4 to explore
the idea of conversation and dialogue as employed by Hooker and
Herbert as part of a sacramental poetic. The book concludes in
chapter 5 with a more general discussion on the abundance of God
and living of the good and abundant life and some of the issues
this involves in the modern world.
