The Living Fire: Contemporary Catholic Writers for the Classroom: Selected Works: Dana Gioia and Sarah Cortez - Paperback

by Dana Gioia (Author), Sarah Cortez (Author), Lesley Clinton (Editor)

This collection provides two curated sets of poems, each written by the living Catholic writers Sarah Cortez and Dana Gioia. We invite teachers and students to delight in this sampling of contemporary sacramental poetry. Accompanying this collection are two separate instructional units, one for each set of poems featured here. In addition to the poems themselves, this Selected Works volume includes questions for reflection and discussion. The poems, questions, and critical material gathered here encourage readers to contemplate the mystery of God's creation, and to locate our place in the cosmos as beings made in the image and likeness of a good and loving God.
