The Routledge Companion to Literature and Religion (Paperback)

This unique and comprehensive volume looks at the study of literature and religion from a contemporary, critical perspective. Including discussion of global literature and world religions, this Companion looks at: key moments in the story of religion and literary studies from Matthew Arnold through to the impact of 9/11; a variety of theoretical approaches to the study of religion and literature; different ways that religion and literature are connected, from overtly religious writing to subtle religious readings; analysis of key sacred texts and the way they have been studied, re-written, and questioned by literature; political implications of work on religion and literature. Thoroughly introduced and contextualized, this volume is an engaging introduction to this huge and complex field.
