Cairns is here focused upon how an image, a word, or--in the case of the Theotokos--a womb can contain the uncontainable. As Orthodox hymnography avers, she is more spacious than the heavens. So, too, the poet suggests, in its own, modest way, the poem might give birth to more, and more, and yet more than even the poet supposes"-- $c Publisher's website. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Religious poetry, American. 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240402012752.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=99C2BC70F0B811EE9EC0998A3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
