Abstract

The article presents the discussion on literary connections between Gerard Manley Hopkins, Annie Dillard, and John Muir. Topics include focusing on Dillard's use of Muir's phrase "infinite storm of beauty" in Pilgrim at Tinker Creek; and allusive nature of Dillard's writing, the influence of nature writing traditions, and the thematic link to the broader history of fossil capitalism and environmental enclosure.
