Böcker av Gillian White

Gillian White argues that the poetry wars among critics and practitioners are shaped by "lyric shame"-an unspoken but pervasive embarrassment over what poetry is, should be, and fails to be. "Lyric" is less a specific genre than a way to project subjectivity onto poems-an idealized poem that is nowhere and yet everywhere.

Gillian White draws on her experiences and proposes that multi-professional health care teams should talk about spirituality in challenging but safe environments to develop shared understanding of it, and to increase their confidence about integrating spiritual care into their daily practise.
