Literature and Religious Experience : Beyond Belief and Unbelief EPUB
Edited by Smith Matthew J. Smith, Spencer Caleb D. Spencer
EPUB
Description
This book challenges the status quo of studies in literature and religion by returning to experience as a bridge between theory and practice. Essays focus on keywords of religious experience and demonstrate their applications in drama, fiction, and poetry.
Each chapter explores the broad significance of its keyword as a category of psychological and social behavior and tracks its unique articulation by individual authors, including Conrad, Beecher Stowe and Melville. Together, the chapters construct a critical foundation for studying literature not only from the perspectives of theology and historicism but from the ways that literary experience reflects, reinforces, and sometimes challenges religious experience.
