Mine Own Familiar Friend adds a new dimension to Hopkins Studies
through its exploration of the complex and sometimes confounding
friendship between the Jesuit priest and poet Gerard Hopkins and
the editor of his first collected works, the poet and critic Robert
Bridges. The divide between the two men is evident in almost every
sphere of their lives, in their approach to poetry, reading,
criticism and language. Based upon the primary texts of the
letters, poetry and critical writings of the two men, the book is
aimed at both an academic and a more generalist audience: Hopkins
scholars and those readers of Hopkins's poetry who may want to know
more about this unique modernist poet whose collected works were
only published, thanks to Bridges, some twenty-nine years after his
death.
