本文认为,唐恩在1623年末患上近乎致命的疾病后立即康复的时期,对于理解它所产生的文本--他的《紧急时刻的沉思》(1624)至关重要。这是一部在不到一个月的时间里创作的独特的冥想作品,《沉思》以作者的《在我痛苦中的脚步》为中心,但通过随后的更安静的精神反思来做到这一点。疾病的恢复期成为多恩治疗人类罪过和忏悔的重要组成部分。本文首先通过他的一篇教堂布道,然后通过《敬爱的自我》,最后通过一篇没有注明日期的圣烛台布道,探索了他对康复的概念和形象,这篇文章可以追溯到1624年2月,也就是多恩生病后不久。第二次布道展示了与圣徒的亲密关系,并标志着在圣保罗大教堂的背景下,对疾病和康复的更公开的回应。
This article argues that the period of Donne's convalescence immediately after his near‐fatal illness in late 1623 is crucial for an understanding of the text it spawned, hisDevotions Upon Emergent Occasions(1624). A unique work of meditative writing composed in under a month, theDevotionscentres on the author's ‘Steps in my Sicknes’ but does so through the quieter time of spiritual stock‐taking that succeeded it. The period of recovery from illness becomes an important part of Donne's treatment of human sinfulness and repentance. The article explores his conceptualization of and images for convalescence, first through one of his churching sermons, then through theDevotionsitself, and finally through an undated Candlemas sermon which this article dates to February 1624, very shortly after Donne's illness. This second sermon demonstrates an intimate relationship with theDevotionsand marks a more public response to illness and recovery within the context of St Paul's Cathedral.
