Authors: Bauerlein, Mark1

Subject Terms: Poetry (Literary form), Versification, Mysticism, Transcendence (Philosophy), Poets
Abstract: The article focuses on James Matthew Wilson's poetry collection, "Saint Ibomas and the Forbidden Birds," which argues for the significance of poetic form in conveying profound truths that prose cannot capture. The review highlights Wilson's belief that structured verse, through its rhythm and imagery, restores a sense of wonder and mystery to creation, contrasting with contemporary poetry that often favors free verse and individual expression. The author suggests that Wilson's work embodies a Catholic supernaturalism, emphasizing the importance of tradition and order in understanding the human experience and the divine. The collection is recommended for its exploration of meaning, morality, and the transcendent amidst modern secular discontent. [Extracted from the article]
