R.S. Thomas cover

This volume celebrates the work of the Welsh poet R. S. Thomas (1913-2000) and illuminates the theological implications of this famous twentieth-century poet-priest's pilgrimage. By providing detailed readings of individual poems, Davis explores the depth and imagination of Thomas's profound theological vision.

"This book uses strategically selected readings to trace the development of particular themes and preoccupations in Thomas' work." - Barry Sloan, University of Southampton "Davis says of R S Thomas, "His pilgrimage will long be traced by faithful followers and by readers still to come." Davis' book succeeds in showing why this should be so." - D Z Phillips, Professor Emeritus, Swansea University
