John donne's descendants' evaluation

After Donne's death, several generations ignored him. He touched our contemporaries because he told us about our living conditions, which Milton could not do. Maybe in about fifty years, this situation will change. But now, Donne is a great writer in our eyes, not only because of his powerful influence on modern poetry, but also because his views are those of modern people. 1940 it is no accident that the title of Hemingway's novel for whom the bell tolls is selected from Donne's diary prose published in 1624 "Emergency Prayer".
