Donne, John: Deaths Duel. 19 October 2007
John Donne (1572-1631) was the most outstanding of the English Metaphysical Poets and a churchman famous for his spellbinding sermons.
Donne's principal literary accomplishments were Divine Poems (1607) and the prose work Biathanatos (c. 1608, posthumously published 1644), a half-serious extenuation of suicides, in which he argued that suicide is not intrinsically sinful. Donne became a priest of the Anglican Church in 1615 and was appointed royal chaplain later that year. In 1621 he was named dean of St. Paul's Cathedral. He attained eminence as a preacher, delivering sermons that are regarded as the most brilliant and eloquent of his time. ((From a website about him)) This is a great sermon about the hope of Eternal life. ((((((((HEAVEN!!!!!!!! Where the library is huge!!!!!!!!!))))))))) I am planning on doing a collection of his poetry soon... Enjoy Roy This work is assumed to be in the Life+70 public domain OR the copyright holder has given specific permission for distribution.
