| Summary |
"Dreams and Images: An Anthology of Catholic Poets" edited by Joyce Kilmer is a collection of poetry likely compiled in the early 20th century. This anthology brings together poems by various Catholic poets who have written since the mid-19th century, reflecting a blend of religious themes, romantic elements, and national sentiments. The compiler, Kilmer, emphasizes that the poems included capture a distinct beauty and engagement with faith, asserting that poetry is inherently tied to prayer and reflection. The opening of the anthology sets the stage for an exploration of Catholic poets and their works. Kilmer explains his intention to curate poems that resonate with personal significance and spiritual beauty rather than simply devotional poetry. He discusses the historical resurgence of Catholic poetry during the 19th century, illustrating how poets like Francis Thompson and Coventry Patmore found inspiration in their faith. The introduction outlines Kilmer's vision of poetry as a reflection of truth and beauty, suggesting that these poems offer deeper insights into the Catholic experience and serve as a means of connection to God.
