The Poets' Life of Christ by Norman Ault is a book that explores the life of Jesus Christ through the eyes of poets. The author has compiled a collection of poems by some of the most celebrated poets in history, including William Wordsworth, John Milton, and Alfred Lord Tennyson, among others. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Christ's life, such as his birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. Each chapter includes several poems that offer a unique perspective on the events and teachings of Christ's life. The poems are accompanied by commentary from the author, who provides historical and literary context for each work. The Poets' Life of Christ is a beautiful and insightful book that offers readers a fresh and inspiring look at one of the most important figures in human history.1922. The editor's aim in this work was to reveal the extent to which the life and teaching of Christ have inspired the poets of the English-speaking race, and not least those who are not famed for their specifically religious poetry, as well as to illustrated that wonderful life itself by the poems thus inspired. Ault deliberately avoided including poems which may be found in collections of hymns. These poems come from widely varied sources, many not available to the general public. Many pieces are from anonymous sources, but often of unique beauty. The majority of the selections are from the poets whose names are familiar to everyone.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
