Nominated by
StalinsunnykvjСретение Господне ("The Meeting of the Lord"), a depiction of Simeon recognising Jesus at the Temple, from a fifteenth-century Novgorodskye School Russian icon.
A Song for Simeon, is a 37-line poem written in 1928 by American-English poet
T. S. Eliot (1888–1965). It is
one of five poems that Eliot contributed to the Ariel poems series of 38 pamphlets by several authors published by
Faber and Gwyer. "A Song for Simeon" was the sixteenth in the series and included an illustration by
avant garde artist
Edward McKnight Kauffer. The poem's narrative echoes the text of the Nunc dimittis, a liturgical prayer for
Compline from the Gospel passage. Eliot introduces literary allusions to earlier writers
Lancelot Andrewes,
Dante Alighieri and
St. John of the Cross. Critics have debated whether Eliot's depiction of Simeon is a negative portrayal of a Jewish figure and evidence of
anti-Semitism on Eliot's part.

Quotes
"Faith lived in the incognito is one which is located outside the criticism coming from society, from politics, from history, for the very reason that it has itself the vocation to be a source of criticism. It is faith (lived in the incognito) which triggers the issues for the others, which causes everything seemingly established to be placed in doubt, which drives a wedge into the world of false assurances." ~
Jacques Ellul
