Scepticism and Hope in Twentieth Century Fantasy Literature
Autor Kath Filmeren Limba Engleză Paperback – dec 1992
Religious discourse has become alien to the secular and skeptical western societies of the twentieth century. There is real discomfort when religious discourse appears either in the popular press or in society. But even in a secular society, there is still a psychological need (one might even use the stronger word will), if not to believe, then at least to hope. Dr. Filmer states this need is met in the literature of fantasy.
