As poet and as country parson, George Herbert engaged the pastoral
in all of its varied senses. In October of 2007, many of the
world's leading Herbert scholars met at Sarum College in Salisbury,
England to locate Herbert's pastoral life and writings more
particularly in early Stuart Wiltshire. They explored the relations
between the pastoral locale of Herbert's last years (1630-1633) in
nearby Bemerton and the themes, images, and tenor of his writing.
How did the specific country place, time, and people shape the life
and work of this especially lyrical country priest? The fourteen
essays in this collection address Herbert's pastoral poetry and
practice, cast new light on his actual relations with specific
local personalities and places, make fresh connections to the
inward biblical and liturgical spaces of his work, consider his
outward links to garden and pasture, and discover fictional and
theological reverberations beyond Herbert's local, pastoral world.
