520 |a The stated goal of this new collection of essays is to correct a deficiency: it sets out to explore what Jenny Franchot termed the ‘invisible domain’ of religion in the work of major American writers from the 1830s to the present. For Franchot, institutionalised religion has been marginalised by linguistic representations and by the theories of Marx, Nietzsche, Freud and Foucault. There Before Us takes Franchot's view as a starting point including the broad reasoning that ‘virtually all of the major American writers of the United States … proved to be products of Jewish and Christian culture’, and that whether we like it or not, religious beliefs and practices ‘are there before us’, and therefore warrant humility (but not servility) from those who study American literature.
