Description

This volume offers an eclectic assortment of new readings of spiritual narrative, indicative of the breadth of late-20th-century scholarly interest in spiritual narrative as a subject for serious intellectual discussion and exploration. What all of these essays have in common is a recognition that spiritual narrative has almost always co-existed with its secular counterpart, often in the same text, and that it has served (and continues to serve) as the paradigm for narrative forms heretofore viewed in other contexts, whether as fiction, autobiography, or political tract.
