SPIRITUAL IDENTITIES KARTONIERT (TB)

This collection of essays considers the return of the religious in contemporary literary
studies. In the twenty-first century it is now possible to detect a new sacred 'turn' in
thought and writing. For some writers  this post-secular identity plays itself out in both a
recuperation of religious traditions (Catholicism  Puritanism  Judaism) and a re-invention of
the religious imaginary (apophaticism  messianism  apocalypticism  fundamentalism). In literary
studies  the implications of the post-secular are revitalizing critical engagement with
canonical works and fuelling the reclaiming of neglected writings as questions of the
construction of spiritual identities come once again to the fore.
