Theology and literature after postmodernity

Zoë Lehmann Imfeld, Peter J. Hampson, Alison Milbank

"This volume deploys theology in a reconstructive approach to contemporary literary criticism, to validate and exemplify theological readings of literary texts as a creative exercise. It engages in a dialogue with interdisciplinary approaches to literature in which theology is alert and responsive to the challenges following post-modernism and post-modern literary criticism. It demonstrates the scope and explanatory power of theological readings across a various texts and literary genres. Theology and Literature after Post-Modernity explores a reconstructive approach to reading and literary study in the university setting, with contributions from interdisciplinary scholars worldwide" --
