Abstract
Given that George Herbert and John Donne are probably the most famous English metaphysical poets, their works have been studied in the light of various reading strategies. This paper first shows the characteristics of Metaphysical Poetry, as well as the peculiarities of Herbert’s and Donne’s literary oeuvre. Considering religion as being one of the most important parts of their lives in the seventeenth century, both of them, of course, include religious elements in their works. The focus is on Herbert’s and Donne’s poems dealing with God and religion. However, both poets also concentrate on the human beings, their spirituality and physicality. Moreover, in the works of both poets it is possible to notice elements of sexuality, which is sometimes expressed directly, and sometimes quite subtly. Also, they often discuss the relationship of men and women, showing strong negative attitude towards female gender. Finally, the analysis of the poems points to the autobiographical elements, but also to the similarities and differences in the way of writing.
