Description
Exploring the complex relationship between Modernism and Christianity, this book argues that no coherent account of Modernism can ignore its Christian roots.
The author examines the impact of Christianity on key figures in Modernist literature, including James Joyce, David Jones, T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, W. H. Auden, and Samuel Beckett, through in-depth case studies.
By theorising 'formative tensions' between cultural Modernism and Christianity, the book sheds new light on the enduring influence of Christian thought on 20th-century literature and culture.
