Faith in Scottish Fiction

The Tartan Blend of World Religions, Ancient Mythology and Magic Realism - Großformatiges Paperback. Klappenbroschur.
BuchKartoniert, Paperback
260 Seiten
Englisch
To reach a spiritual union of body and soul in close proximity to a benign God has often tempted the devout heroes and heroines of Scottish fiction to evade the responsibilities of the day-job. Some protagonists would become victims of Calvinist extremism and eliminate their own 'infidel' siblings. The fictional drama of competing world religions has started in 19th-century Scotland and seems to have reached by now a superficial state of harmony through multicultural coexistence in the Lowlands. Throughout our literary quest we will try and pay tribute to all the major faith groups on Celtic soil who have contributed to the deeply reflective texture of imaginative tartan verse and prose.mehr
