He is considered the pre-eminent representative of the metaphysical poets. This book contains two of his most famous works - \"Devotions upon Emergent Occasions\" and \"Death's Duel\". Devotions upon Emergent Occasions is a 1624 prose work by John Donne, who dedicated it to the future King Charles I. It is a series of reflections that were written as Donne recovered from a serious illness, believed to be either typhus or relapsing fever. (Donne does not clearly identify the disease in his text.) He describes this as a \"preternatural birth, in returning to life, from this sickness\". The work consists of twenty-three parts ('devotions') describing each stage of the sickness. Each part is further divided into a Meditation, an Expostulation, and a Prayer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alex Struik,John Donne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/06\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.37d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781481186988\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45281552859251,"sku":"9781481186988","price":14.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_684d761b-ba48-4214-9824-fe794d018f1a.jpg?v=1784983463","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/devotions-upon-emergent-occasions-together-with-deaths-duel-9781481186988","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
