Summary

From his early love poetry to his late religious writing, John Donne speaks of the human body as a book to be read and interpreted. Unlike modern thinkers who understand the body as a purely material phenomenon or post-modern critics who see in it a ?text? produced by culture, Donne understands the body as a (scriptural) text written by God.
