Summary: | The Oxford Handbook of English Literature and Theology is a major new anthology of fifty essays offering a wide range of perspectives on its subject matter. It comprises introductory essays by two of the editors (David Jasper and Elisabeth Jay), five main sections of between eight and eleven chapters each written by scholars from literary studies, theology, and biblical studies, and an afterword by the third editor, Andrew Hass. This review works to introduce readers to this flagship volume of nearly 1,000 pages, one that signals the maturity of ‘literature and theology’ as an extensively researched and taught interdisciplinary area of study., Part one, ‘Introductory Essays,’ considers the enmeshed origins of theology and English literature. |
