Focusing on the influence of the Oxford Movement on key British
poets of the nineteenth-century, this book charts their ruminations
on the nature of hunger, poverty and economic injustice. Exploring
the works of Christina Rossetti, Coventry Patmore, Gerard Manley
Hopkins, Adelaide Anne Procter, Alice Meynell and Alfred, Lord
Tennyson, Lesa Scholl examines the extent to which these poets -
not all of whom were Anglo-Catholics themselves - engaged with the
Tractarian social vision when grappling with issues of poverty and
economic injustice in and beyond their poetic works. By engaging
with economic and cultural history, as well as the sensorial
materiality of poetry, Hunger, Poetry and the Oxford Movement
challenges the assumption that High-Church politics were
essentially conservative and removed from the social crises of the
Victorian period.
