R. S. Thomas and Rowan Williams's great religious poetry continued a well-established Welsh tradition. This book examines spiritual resonance in late-twentieth-century Welsh poetry, including writers as diverse as Saunders Lewis, Vernon Watkins, Waldo Williams, and Bobi Jones. With careful attention to poetic form and style, M. Wynn Thomas draws out each poet's particular theological convictions and reveals an abundance of religious reverberations within secular Welsh culture.
