Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions
Book (italiano):
One of Donne's most important and haunting works in prose, <em>Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions</em> was composed in less than a month, during an illness that nearly cost the writer his life. Donne divided the book into twenty-three sections, each corresponding to a stage of his illness and each consisting of a meditation, an expostulation, and a prayer. Filled with powerful images of mortality and immortality that have moved readers throughout the centuries, it provides a coherent spiritual message relevant not only to Donne's life but to the lives of all people.
