Literature and the Renewal of the Public Sphere Hardback
by M. Walhout, Kenneth A. Loparo
Part of the Cross Currents in Religion and Culture series
Hardback
Description
This collection examines the ways in which religion and literature are capable of renewing what the eminent German philosopher Jürgen Habermas refers to as 'the public sphere'.
The essays range from close commentaries on particular texts ( King Lear, The Brothers Karamazov, 'Bartleby the Scrivener') to surveys of the careers of selected writers who have entered the public sphere (Elizabeth Gaskell, W.H.
Auden, Raymond Carver, Sherman Alexie), to historical and theoretical examinations of various national and international public spheres.
