Abstract

Das Verhältnis von Theologie und Literatur im 18. Jahrhundert, das weder begrifflich noch sachlich, weder historisch noch systematisch dem von Religion und Literatur oder Frömmigkeit und Literatur identisch ist, lässt sich als ein insgesamt instabiles, im Detail schwieriges und offenes beschreiben: Stärker als die Theologie im Katholizismus und im Judentum ist die im Protestantismus Transformationen unterlegen: Sie bewegt sich in der Spanne von Lutherischer Orthodoxie und rationalistischer Theologie zwischen erbaulicher cultura animi und vernünftiger Wissenschaft. Die Literatur der Zeit entwickelt sich in der Spanne von Barock zur Romantik von einer ancilla theologiae zu einer wohl selbstbestimmten und zugleich zunehmend am Markt orientierten Institution. Solchermaßen sind Theologie und Literatur in wechselnden Konstellationen aufeinander bezogen: z.B. lernt die Theologie von der Literatur die Gemeinde als ein Publikum zu fesseln, und die Literatur will als Predigt von der Theologie einen Sinnstiftungs- und Orientierungsanspruch übernehmen. Diese und andere Konstellationen und Verhältnisse der Konkurrenz und der Ergänzung, der Konfrontation und der Koexistenz nehmen die Beiträge des Bandes in den Blick.

Abstract

In this remarkably erudite work, Christopher Bundock argues that the repeated failure of prophecy in Romantic thought is creative and enables a renewable potential for expression across disciplines.

Abstract

Beginning with a wide-ranging introduction that explains why a theological reading of Victorian fiction is both rewarding and timely, Perkin also addresses religion's return to prominence in the twenty-first century, confounding earlier predictions of its imminent demise. Chapters on William Thackeray, Charlotte Brontë, Charlotte Yonge, Anthony Trollope, George Eliot, and Thomas Hardy are followed by a concluding discussion of Mary Ward and Walter Pater that relates Pater's Marius the Epicurean to postmodern theology and shows how it remains a religious classic for our own time.

Abstract

This is the first book-length study of how point of view is manifested linguistically in dramatic texts. It examines such issues as how readers process the shifts in viewpoint that can occur within such texts. Using insights from cognitive linguistics, the book aims to explain how the analysis of point of view in drama can be undertaken, and how this is fruitful for understanding textual and discoursal effects in this genre. Following on from a consideration of existing frameworks for the analysis of point of view, a cognitive approach to deixis is suggested as being particularly profitable for explaining the viewpoint effects that can arise in dramatic texts. To expand on the large number of examples discussed throughout the book, the penultimate chapter consists of an extended analysis of a single play. This book is relevant to scholars in a range of areas, including linguistics, literary studies and cognitive science.

Abstract

Heresy studies is a new interdisciplinary, supra-religious, and humanist field of study that focuses on borderlands of dogma, probes the intersections between orthodoxy and heterodoxy, and explores the realms of dissent in religion, art, and literature. Free from confessional agendas and tolerant of both religious and non-religious perspectives, heresy studies fulfill an important gap in scholarly inquiry and artistic production. Divided into four parts, the volume explores intersections between heresy and modern literature, it discusses intricacies of medieval heresies, it analyzes issues of heresy in contemporary theology, and it demonstrates how heresy operates as an artistic stimulant. Rather than treating matters of heresy, blasphemy, unbelief, dissent, and non-conformism as subjects to be shunned or naively championed, the essays in this collection chart a middle course, energized by the dynamics of heterodoxy, dissent, and provocation, yet shining a critical light on both the challenges and the revelations of disruptive kinds of thinking and acting.
