Here is a serious and passionate plea for theology and education to stand in relationship. Moore argues for an organic approach to religious, moral and theological education.
So Much to Love: So Much to Lose explores the vibrancy of love, mottled with loss and the threat of more loss. The poetry arises from the natural world and experiences of living in personal, societal, and ecological relationships. Moore dwells on the complexities of love, as it reveals beauty, tragedy, and deep relations among all beings of creation. The same love awakens readers to the pain of loss and evokes hope for a world in which all life flourishes and in which natural cycles of loss can be grieved and embraced, while human-made violence and destruction can be abhorred and protested. This book is an invitation to people who are searching for spiritual depths in our beautiful and tragic world. It invites readers to meditate, imagine, and ponder their own lives in the living web of the planet.
Grounded in nature and the body's knowledge of death, Mary B. Moore's fifth poetry collection queries the divine, evoking its traces in doubt, dread, and awe; in language's music and its ability to make be; in earth's prismatic effulgence and its cataclysm and charism. Inventive in image, metaphor, and wordplay, Moore mourns belief and its loss. Moore's poems are influenced by Elizabeth Bishop and Marianne Moore in their keen eye toward the natural world, and by John Donne, Gerard Manley Hopkins, and Mary Szybist in their ardor to stretch language to address the sacred.

Moore (English, Marshall U.) analyzes and contextualizes the Petrarchan love sonnet sequences of Gaspara Stampa, Louise Labe, Lady Mary Wroth, Charlotte Smith, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and Edna St. Vincent Millay. Close readings of the poems are accompanied by theory and criticism regarding constructs of women, historical events, and biographical material, illuminating the poets, Petrarchism as a convention, ideas about women, and the range and limitations of female roles as erotic subjects and objects.
