Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

"Here is where Donne’s chief silence lies: in questions both unasked and unanswered. . ."
Concept of silence influenced key Anglican poets in the 1600s, says Kate McLoughlin

"No man is an island,
Entire of itself;
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main" #JohnDonne "མི་གང་ཡང་རང་ཉིད་ཁོ་ནའི་གླིང་ཕྲན་ཞིག་མིན།
མི་རེ་རེ་ནི་གླིང་ཕྲན་གྱི་ཆ་ཤས་ཤིག་དང་། དེ་ཡང་གཙོ་བོའི་ཆ་ཤས་ཤིག" དབྱིན་ཇིའི་སྙན་ངག་པ།

Photo shows paperback copy of Katherine Rundell's "Super-Infinite: The Transformations of John Donne." The cover is white, showing an illustration of Donne in the top half of an infinity symbol. There are also blurbs about the quality of the book.
I'm reading this now, "Super-Infinite: The Transformations of John Donne," by Katherine Rundell. Born in 1571, Donne was a British poet known for his metaphysical and love poetry. #books #literature #booksky #reading #johndonne

“No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own were...” - #JohnDonne (born: 22 January 1572)

Any man's death diminishes me, Because I am involved in mankind. And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.

Yesterday I read that #JOHNDONNE was
quoted twice, so of course I researched. This is what I found. The highlighted quote coincides with my life as a “Recluse in Training”!

Painting, St Lucy by Carlo Crivelli
Tis the year's midnight, and it is the day's,
Lucy's, who scarce seven hours herself unmasks;
The sun is spent, and now his flasks
Send forth light squibs, no constant rays;
The world's whole sap is sunk;

Since she enjoys her long night's festival,
Let me prepare towards her, and let me call
This hour her vigil, and her eve, since this
Both the year's, and the day's deep midnight is.

When John Donne wrote the tenth "Holy Sonnet" he addressed Death directly and found a Christian answer to his fears.
I invite you to listen to my reading of "Death Be Not Proud" and hear as well a confrontation of all the merchants of death in our own time.

A piece about #JohnDonne and the amazing fact that when he wrote "the Flea" he was actually writing in an established and popular genre of #poetry - erotic flea poetry. In his day, fleas were regarded as saucy little devils, able to easily gain access to the most private parts of the human anatomy.

Ayer le expliqué a mi hijo que la canción #forwhomthebelltolls d @metallica.com surgió a partir de una novela de #Hemingway que a su vez se inspiró en la guerra civil y en un poema de #JohnDonne.
Se quedó flipando y dijo que era muy interesante.
Los adolescentes desean aprender🖤

“I am a little world made cunningly / Of elements, and an angelic sprite … Pour new seas in mine eyes, that so I might / Drown my world with my weeping earnestly …”
