Contemporary Literary Theory

“Calling Christian scholars to overdue participation in ‘the debates over contemporary literary theory,’ this collection provides a useful overview of critical debates and movements in our time. Whether the dozen essays in fact prepare
the ground for a ‘Christian criticism’ will no doubt be disputed; that they nudge us insistently and insightfully in the right direction, however, cannot be denied. Insofar as they repudiate a facile separation between belief and practice, these
thoughtful critiques issue a challenge that should not go unheeded within the academy at large.”
