Rethinking the Secular Origins of the Novel de Kevin Seidel

Rethinking the Secular Origins of the Novel

Autor Kevin Seidel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 feb 2024
Unsettling the usual ways we think about the relationship between religion and secularism, and focusing on scenes where the Bible shows up as a physical object in eighteenth-century English fiction, this book powerfully argues that the English novel rose with the Bible, not after it.

Recenzii

'Throughout this monograph, the reader is comfortingly guided … through the convoluted relationship between the sacred and the secular. Seidel presents a well-reasoned argument that highlights the complex patterns and interactions between the physical presence of the Bible in the emerging genre of the novel. It is worth reading for anyone interested in the eighteenth-century rise of the novel, secularization and literature, and the increasingly popular religious history of the eighteenth century.' Rebekah Andrew, Eighteenth Century Fiction
