This book combines literary criticism, postmodern theology,
philosophy, and musicology in a rethinking of the relationship of
modernist literature and religion. Erickson argues that theological
modes of thinking are ingrained in the very roots of our
metaphysical assumptions, and are impossible to escape, even and
especially in the skeptical and experimental woks of modernism. By
concentrating on moments of difficulty and ambiguity in works such
as Henry James's "The Golden Bowl," Marcel Proust's "In Search of
Lost Time," and Arnold Schoenberg's opera "Moses und Aron, "the
book identifies the paradoxical construction of a god-idea buried
in the tropes and metaphors of each text.
