This paper will examine the curative effects of art and the reorienting perspective of poetry in the aesthetic pastoral theology of Donald E. Capps by exploring two key volumes, The Poet's Gift and At Home in the World. The paper identifies some of the key contributions of Capps's exploration of art and poetry including the recovery of perception, the advancement of reframing perspective, the notion of embodied pastoral conversation and the roots of religious sensibility. The therapeutic effect of the imaginative aesthetic pastoral theology in these two volumes is further developed by integrating three corollary themes in Capps's particular orientation to pastoral theology, namely hope, freedom and authenticity.
本文将通过探讨唐纳德·E·卡普斯（Donald E. Capps）的两部关键著作《诗人的天赋》（The Poet's Gift）和《世界中的家园》（At Home in the World），来审视艺术的治愈效果以及诗歌在其审美田园神学中重新定位视角的作用。本文指出了卡普斯对艺术和诗歌探索的一些关键贡献，包括感知的恢复、视角重构的推进、具身田园对话的概念以及宗教情感的根源。通过将卡普斯在田园神学特定取向中的三个相关主题，即希望、自由和本真性，进行整合，这两部著作中富有想象力的审美田园神学的治疗效果得到了进一步发展。
