About "Faith, Doubt and Poetry" Dr Rowan Williams

Dr Williams will explore the themes of Faith, Poetry and Doubt

From a fascinating collection in A Century of Poetry: 100 poems for Searching the Heart Dr Williams will explore the themes of Faith, Poetry and Doubt.

Dr Williams is acknowledged internationally as an outstanding theological writer, scholar and teacher. He has been involved in many theological, ecumenical and educational commissions. He has written extensively across a very wide range of related fields of professional study - philosophy, theology (especially early and patristic Christianity), spirituality and religious aesthetics - as evidenced by his bibliography. He has also written throughout his career on moral, ethical and social topics and, since becoming archbishop, has turned his attention increasingly on contemporary cultural and interfaith issues.

This event is part of the Newport Festival of Words, 20th - 22nd March 2026.
