There is no book more important for our culture than the Bible, and
it is fundamental to the study of English literature and language.
But the Bible is actually little read and its resonances in poetry,
plays, and fiction are becoming forgotten and lost.
This book is designed primarily, though not exclusively, for
students of English, giving a collection of some of the most
important passages from the Hebrew and Christian Bibles, with
introductions and commentaries, and selections of texts from
literature which use and incorporate these passages in different
ways. It explores how closely the Bible is linked with some of the
great imaginative literature in English, beginning with the
creation stories in Genesis and moving through to the visions of
the End in Revelation.
There are extensive introductory essays and full reading
lists.
