Description: Raising the Sparks by Jennifer Wallace Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "In these poems, Wallace endeavors to find God in all things, and elevate them to holiness"-- Publisher Description Raising the Sparks, Jennifer Wallaces sixth poetry collection, is inspired by the alignment of Christian and Judaic traditions. The idea of raising the sparks, tikkun olam, comes from 16th century mystical Judaism--the belief that, if people worked to "gather or raise the sparks" from the sacred vessels that shattered at the moment of creation, a repair of the world from its initial splitting would be complete. It is the duty of each one of us to raise the sparks from wherever they are imprisoned and to elevate them to holiness. Also informing this work is the Jesuit idea of finding God in all things and conversing (without clerical intervention) directly with Jesus. The poems in this collection engage with these theological traditions by witnessing the human joys and challenges of attending to their mandates. Author Biography Jennifer Wallace lives in Shutesbury, MA. Her poems, essays and photographs have appeared in artists books, exhibition catalogs, galleries, museums, anthologies and literary journals. She has written several books of poetry, including Almost Entirely and Raising the Sparks.
