Résumé
Two artists. Two eras. One shared vision of the sacred hidden in the ordinary. When Canadian singer-songwriter Bruce Cockburn first picked up a novel by Charles Williams-the most mystical and least understood member of the Inklings-he discovered a kindred spirit. Williams' strange, luminous theology resonated with Cockburn's own experiences of the holy breaking into daily life, sparking a creative season that shaped some of the most iconic songs of his career.
In Shadows of Ecstasy and Rumours of Glory, John R. Mabry traces the deep and surprising connections between these two unlikely companions. With clarity, warmth, and a scholar's insight, he explores: How Williams' visionary ideas-co-inherence, romantic theology, substituted love-illuminate Cockburn's lyrics Why both artists saw the world as charged with divine presence Where moments of mystical "inbreaking" echo across novels and songs How the lives of two flawed, brilliant men reveal a shared longing for transformation Part literary study, part theological meditation, and part celebration of artistic imagination, this book invites readers into a conversation between two extraordinary creators-one that leads us to look again at our own world with new attention, new wonder, and new hope.
Whether you're an admirer of Cockburn's music, a student of the Inklings, or simply a lover of spiritually rich art, this is a journey you won't want to miss.
