520 _a"The Vicar of Morwenstow: Being a Life of Robert Stephen Hawker, M.A." by S. Baring-Gould is a biographical account written in the late 19th century. This work chronicles the eccentric and poetic life of Robert Stephen Hawker, a vicar noted for his intense religious feelings and remarkable character. The book explores Hawker's upbringing, his antics as a mischievous youth, his literary pursuits, and his eventual rise as a vicar in Morwenstow, a place steeped in myth and folklore. At the start of the narrative, the author introduces us to Hawker's early life, revealing the significant influence of his religious grandfather, Dr. Jacob Hawker, who was known for his kindness and eccentricity. Despite being sent to various schools, young Robert displayed a rebellious spirit, notably running away from one after only a night, showcasing his penchant for mischief. The opening portion sets the tone for Hawker's life as both a celebrated poet and a curious figure, filled with humorous anecdotes that hint at the adventures and challenges he would encounter as he sought not just to fulfill his duties as a clergyman, but also to express the beauty and struggles of life through his poetry.
