R. S. Thomas's presentation of God has given rise to controversy
and dissent. In exploring Thomas's techniques of creating his image
of God, Elaine Shepherd addresses the problems surrounding the
language of religion and of religious poetry. After a consideration
of the possibilities of both the positive and negative ways of
imaging God and the problematics of religious poetry as a genre, a
sequence of close readings engages the reader in an exploration of
language and image. Each chapter focuses on a significant image,
examining its construction and its potential to stand as an image
for God, from the image of woman as constructed by the
Impressionists to the non-image of the mystical theologian.
