	Richard Crashaw
		William Crashaw, the father, was born in Yorkshire of a prosperous stock, which had been settled for some generations in or about Handsworth, a place some few miles to the east of the present town of Sheffield.
		Richard, the future poet, could scarcely have been more than a child of six when this event took place; but the relations between the boy and his step-mother, brief as they must have been, were affectionate to an unusual degree.
		Owing to the elder Crashaw's fame as a Temple preacher and the scarcely less notable distinction which must have attached to him as a hard-hitting Protestant pamphleteer, it was only natural that, in the then state of public opinion, a career should in time be opened to his promising son.

	Richard Crashaw - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Richard Crashaw was originally put to school at Charterhouse, but in July 1631 he was admitted to Pembroke College, Cambridge, where he took the degree of B.A. in 1634.
		Crashaw excelled in all manner of graceful accomplishments; besides being an excellent Latinist and Hellenist, he had an intimate knowledge of Italian and Spanish; and his skill in music, painting and engraving was no less admired in his lifetime than his skill in poetry.
		The themes of Crashaw's verses are as distinct as possible from those of Shelley's, but it may, on the whole, be said that at his best moments he reminds the reader more closely of the author of Epipsychidion than of any earlier or later poet.

		Crashaw, in fact, is a genuine Marinist, the happiest specimen which we possess in English, for he preserves a high level of fantastic foppery, and seldom, at his worst, sinks to those crude animal imagings--illustrations from food, for instance--which occasionally make such writers as Habington and Carew not merely ridiculous but repulsive.
		Crashaw never pants out a line and a half which leave us faint and throbbing, as if the heart of humanity itself had been revealed to us for a moment; with all his flying colour and lambent flame, Crashaw is not Donne.
		It is unfortunate that Crashaw is so unequal as to be positively delusive; he baffles analysis by his uncertain hold upon style, and in spite of his charm and his genius is perhaps most interesting to us because of the faults he shares with purely modern poets.

	Richard Crashaw : Poems and Biography
		Although Richard Crashaw was the son of a strongly anti-Catholic clergyman in England, he became a convert to Catholicism.
		Richard Crashaw's poetry is often listed among the favorites of the English Metaphysical Poets, a group that includes George Herbert, Henry Vaughan, and John Donne.
		Crashaw's poetry in Steps to the Temple (1646) makes some obvious references to Herbert's work, and Crashaw admits to being influenced by Herbert, but Crashaw's poetry is less overtly "religious" and more immediately mystical.

	Richard Crashaw
		Crashaw was an English convert from Protestantism to Roman Catholicism, and he was deeply influenced by the writings of St. Teresa of Avila, including her autobiography.
		Teresa in Ecstasy carved by Gianlorenzo Bernini was, like Crashaw's poem, inspired by Teresa's writings and in particular her account (above) of how an angel transfixed her heart with a burning dart.
		Some scholars think that Crashaw may have seen one of Bernini's sketches for the statue in its planning stages and that it may be that sketch that he refers to in his poem.

		Summary: Crashaw is the foremost exponent of the style that critics now call (after W. Sypher, 1955) the Baroque [from the French for an irregularly shaped pearl, perhaps from the Arabic (buraq) for stony or pebbled ground].
		Note, too, how Crashaw takes Donne's strategy of multiplying the active verbs for the ecstatic event and attaches them to an even longer list of outcomes which develop the cosmic consequences of this experience (ll.
		Can Crashaw and the rest of the baroque artists be compared with any movements in recent popular music, given their interests in exotic materialist imagery, working out grotesque and delirious variations on impassioned themes, etc.?

	Richard Crashaw - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Born in London Suckling was the son of a strongly anti-papistical divine, Dr William Crashaw (1572-1626), who distinguished himself, even in those times, by the excessive acerbity of his writings against the Catholics.

		Crashaw's Latin poem Bulla ("Bubble") served as the inspiration for Elliott Carter's large orchestral work Symphonia: sum fluxae pretium spei.

		This concatenation of biblical images, types, and emblems turns the waters of the Old Testament scene into the blood of Christ's sacrifice, thus making explicit the prophetic blending of times and beings always potential in a type.
		In "Easter Day," Richard Crashaw most unusually makes the smitten rock a type of Christ's tomb, from which issues forth the risen Christ and immortality for all believers.
		Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century hymns and devotional verse make extensive use of the smitten rock to generate a typological universe surrounding the reader.
