John Donne author of metaphysical and love poetry that is among the greatest ever written Donne's metaphysical poetry makes use of complex, shifting images which are remarkably convincing to the reader. The greatness of his poetry is the simplicity in the ideas expressed - despite the use of extensive techniques and varying images, a simple and complete argument is moulded in all of the poet's works. At an early age, Donne entered the University of Oxford, and later had a short stint at Cambridge University. He did not receive a degree from either university; but subsequently studied law and worked as a lawyer. He became a priest of the Anglican Church in 1615, after deserting the Catholic faith in which he was brought up. His collection of Holy Sermons, 160 Sermons is some of his most interesting work. Donne's metaphysical poetry and the irregular techniques he employed which were so unique for his time had a profound influence on many authors. Source : Classics Network Editorial Team DONNE, JOHN (1573—1631), English poet and divine of the reign of James I, was born in 1573 in the parish of St Nicholas Olave, in the city Of London. His father was a wealthy merchant, who next year became warden of the Company of Ironmongers, but died early in 1576. Donne’s parents were Catholics, and his mother, Elizabeth Heywood, was directly descended from the sister of the great Sir Thomas More; she was the daughter of John Heywood the epigrammatist. As a child, Donne’s precocity was such that it was said of him that “this age hath brought forth another Pico della Mirandola.” He entered H... [

John "Un-" Donne First of all, I must admit that I don't much care for John's poems. But he's important to knowafter all, he was the leader, so to speak, of the metaphysical school of poetry and by all accounts, a nice guy. He was described as a very charming and companionable person, even if he was raised Catholic . Though he attended the very prestigious universities of Oxford and Cambridge , he was unable to take a degree either place because his family objected on religious grounds to the oath of allegiance all graduates had to take. Undaunted, John began to study law in 1592, in hopes of landing a state job, or perhaps even a court position . He also frittered away some of his time messing about with some poetry. His introduction into the fast lane was rather slow in coming . It wasn't until 1597 that he finally got any kind of a job, and that was working as secretary to Sir Thomas Egerton. Sir Thomas was a great and impressive statesman, being Lord Keeper of the Great Seal

John Donne Death, thou shalt die. Essays on John Donne Additional Resources - images, books, reviews... Song A Hymn to God the Father Death, Be Not Proud Confined Love ... A Hymn to Christ at the Author's Last Going into Germany John Donne was the most outstanding of the English Metaphysical Poets and a churchman famous for his spellbinding sermons. His poetry is noted for its ingenious fusion of wit and seriousness and represents a shift from classical models toward a more personal style. Donne was born in London to a prominent Roman Catholic family but converted to Anglicanism during the 1590s. At the age of 11 he entered the University of Oxford, where he studied for three years. According to some accounts, he spent the next three years at the University of Cambridge but took no degree at either university. He began the study of law at Lincoln's Inn, London, in 1592, and he seemed destined for a legal or diplomatic career. In 1596, Donne joined the naval expedition that Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex, led against Cádiz, Spain. On his return to England, Donne was appointed private secretary to Sir Thomas Egerton, Keeper of the Great Seal, in 1598. Donne's secret marriage in 1601 to Egerton's niece, Anne More, resulted in his dismissal from this position and in a brief imprisonment. The poet, in a characteristic pun, later summed up the experience: "John Donne, Anne Donne, Undone." During the next few years Donne made a meager living as a lawyer, serving chiefly as counsel for Thomas Morton, an anti-Roman Catholic pamphleteer. Donne may have collaborated with Morton in writing pamphlets that appeared under Morton's name from 1604 to 1607. Donne's principal literary accomplishments during this period were

Donne's principal literary accomplishments during this period were Divine Poems (1607) and the prose work Biathanatos (c. 1608, posthumously published 1644), a half-serious extenuation of suicides, in which he argued that suicide is not intrinsically sinful. Donne became a priest of the Anglican Church in 1615 and was appointed royal chaplain later that year. In 1621 he was named dean of St. Paul's Cathedral. He attained eminence as a preacher, delivering sermons that are regarded as the most brilliant and eloquent of his time.
