‘Christ’s New Stamp’ (paper on John Donne) - Paul Ferguson - 09-20-2024
"This paper analyses John Donne’s poetic exploration of a Patristic metaphor, which compares humanity to a coin that has defaced its stamp, the imago Dei, due to the Fall. Donne, writing after the Elizabethan Settlement, refashions this conceit in order to take account of the alterations in soteriological and economic thought that had taken place. This dissertation uncovers Donne’s poetic reflection on the implicit relation between salvific and monetary economies, and a preoccupation with the effects these notions have on alchemical subjects, as well as on the role played by women in religious thought and in society as a whole.
