His preference also prized the religious poetic trends as a spiritual weapon against vice and atheism. His advocacy of ideas upholding virtue, morality, and Christianity in a world that was undergoing phenomenal changes in its mores served as a backbone for the renewal and strengthening of the increasing popularity of divine poetry. This work further explores the Bible's influence on Blackmore's physico-theological poems, his personal notions of a Creator, and his scientific ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47612916695191,"sku":"9780761835608","price":5717.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780761835608.webp?v=1775081344","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sir-richard-blackmore-and-the-bible-a-reading-of-his-physico-theological-poems-9780761835608","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
