{"product_id":"9780761835608","title":"Sir Richard Blackmore and the Bible : A Reading of His Physico-theological Poems","description":"\u003cp\u003eSir Richard Blackmore (1650_1729) was deeply affected by the Protestant poetic trends in England, which favored the Sacred Scriptures as a source for what was termed 'divine poetry.' His preference also prized the religious poetic trends as a spiritual weapon against vice and atheism. His advocacy of ideas upholding virtue, morality, and Christianity in a world that was undergoing phenomenal changes in its mores served as a backbone for the renewal and strengthening of the increasing popularity of divine poetry. This work further explores the Bible's influence on Blackmore's physico-theological poems, his personal notions of a Creator, and his scientific ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49108421837027,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":57.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9780761835608-1.jpg?v=1788350846","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/products\/9780761835608","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
