Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Discovery of America: A Pageant American poets who have the historical sense are learning that the history of their nation offers them a wealth of romantic and noble incident, most suitable for poetic treatment. America is a splendid idealistic adventure, to be chronicled not by pedants, but by poets. To the Catholic poet especially the history of our nation is an inviting theme, for the Church plays a glorious part in American development. Father Coakley has taken a magnificent theme, and treated it with appropriate dignity and enthusiasm. No one can read it without a new and strong realization of the bond between America and the Catholic Church. He makes that gallant gentleman, Columbus, very human; he makes us see also that Kings and Queens can be genuinely regal. I am glad that he has written this Pageant, and that it is to be produced at this time, when the Cross and the Flag are going out to victory together.
