| Summary: | The intersection between religion/theology and literature is still a fruitful one; in fact, scholars just recently took stock of the field in Religion and Literature’s Summer 2009 issue. In Between Truth and Fiction: A Narrative Reader in Literature and Theology, editors David Jasper and Allen Smith offer us a new reader on this interdisciplinary subject, which distinguishes itself by paying especial attention to the overlapping concepts of ‘truth’ and ‘fiction’. While the editors locate Between Truth and Fiction among their previous work on hermeneutics and ‘fictive worlds’ (p. 1), it should also, of course, be considered alongside other readers in religion and literature, like Jasper’s own collaboration with Robert Detweiler, Religion and Literature: A Reader (2000). |
