This was a gift to my daughter, an Episcopal priest. She began reading it immediately, couldn't put it down.
Long a fan of J. Chester Johnson's poetry, I grabbed this gem of a book for a long plane ride. Written with elegant prose (as only a poet can do) this story encompasses layers--a history within a history--of the Psalms to their current translation (on which Mr. Johnson worked) in the Book of Common Prayer. It is the story of Johnson's relationship with and to W.H. Auden on this translation project and it is a fascinating vetting of the opinions and agendas surrounding the project at the time. It is the history of the work of Miles Coverdale, the 16th century original translator of the Psalms to the English, whose imperfect--sometimes inaccurate--though poetic and (historically) beloved translation, which had stood until the current translation on which Auden and Johnson worked. A wonderfully engaging telling--rich with history from Johnson who is an integral part of this legacy.
This is an important and well-written book that I have long awaited reading. As an Episcopalian and a poet, Johnson's book about Auden and The Psalms reads to me as a living history about a text that is fundamental to the shaping of who we are in God's love and narrative. This book is concise, well written, and seeks to shine further light upon one of the most important works of all of English Literature. The stewardship that is described and documented here let's future generations understand just what is at stake within the realm of language. Exact words matter. Language helps define our humanity, and Johnson has done a deliberate and beautiful job of depicting the historic events surrounding the retranslation of the Psalms. Johnson is a beautiful writer and poet who takes great care, humility, and grace in his documenting of events. I am richer for having read this work, and I heartily recommend this book to people of all denominations and beliefs. The Psalms are the balm that sustain. Let us delight in the Lord and all the good he does through people.
The author has written an illuminating book about the retranslation of the Psalms of David undertaken by the Episcopal Church. As one of only two surviving members of the committee which the Episcopal Church put together for this project, Johnson brings a unique perspective to discuss the history of the psalms and the process by which the current version of the psalms contained in the 1979 Book of Common Prayer. He reveals his work with W H Auden on the project and includes in the book several letters from Auden about Auden's feelings on the process undertaken. Part history and part memoir, this book is a great read, informative, explanatory and personal. I learned so much from this book, as it contains information nowhere else available. I do not think any reader, Episcopal or not, would be disappointed with this book because of its historical and literary significance.
J. Chester Johnson, a poet, has written an insightful reminiscence of his work on drafting committee for the re-translation of the Psalms for the revised Episcopal Book of Common Prayer in the late 1960s and 1970s. In Auden, The Psalms, and Me, Johnson recounts his epistolary exchanges with W. H. Auden, whose seat on the committee Johnson occupied after Auden moved back to England. As the youngest and last surviving member of this committee, Johnson is in a unique position to defend the committee’s product, the updating of the version of the Psalms by Miles Coverdale, which had been used by the Anglican Communion for 400 years. He, and they, and W H. Auden did not take their work lightly, debating line by line the many possible modern versions of Coverdale’s translation, which itself was a re-translation, not from the original Hebrew but from the Greek and Latin.This short volume manages to incorporate several narratives. Johnson had previously published several shorter essays about his service on the committee and his contacts with Auden, but those accounts didn’t incorporate all the aspects of his experience. There is the story of a young poet who introduces himself to Auden and the committee chair and, improbably, lands a position among a group of eminent scholars, churchmen, musicians, and other experts, all his senior. Another is a discussion of numerous issues facing the re-translation committee, including the chief one of changing the text that Episcopalians had heard, sung, and recited for generations and that “cradle Episcopalians†knew in their bones. Dealing with Auden’s sometimes angry skepticism about the whole project (he wanted the Prayer Book to return to Latin) is another key part of the story. As a published poet, Johnson also explains the rhetorical and poetic nuances of both the Coverdale and modern versions of the Psalms. Finally, Johnson weaves autobiographical anecdotes into his narrative, illustrating passages from the Psalms with his experience growing up in rural Arkansas, as well as relating the Psalms to wider historical events. One that struck me in particular was his linking of the Babylonian Exile to the Holocaust and the Cherokee Trail of Tears.This book will be of interest to all Episcopalians but also to other Christians, and Jews, for whom the Psalms are central to their liturgies, rites, and personal devotion. It will certainly be of interest to readers and scholars of Auden. Johnson is modest about his own contributions to the re-translation process, but he has a strong point of view in favor of the ultimate product, despite the skeptics who mourn the superseding of the Coverdale Psalms, acknowledging that “it was W. H. Auden and those many other poets through whom I found my way to the plenitude, the simple, but conspicuous and unrelenting moment of words in the first place.â€
One neither needs to be Episcopalian nor a poet to enjoy and learn from Johnson's most recent book. It is a clean, concise and cogent review of the latest translation of the Psalms. The book provides a glimpse at the basic issues and complexities of any translation process. This is a must-read for anyone interested in literary history. Students of language and ideas will find it edifying. Easy to read and thought provoking, it also sheds light on the intellectual and spiritual perspectives of W. H. Auden, one of the 20th century's most influential writers.
