The essays in this Companion each examine one or more literary texts and a religious tradition - including Dharmic and Abrahamic traditions - to see how we can understand both literature and religion better by looking at them in tandem. It provides close readings rather than surveys, making it an ideal resource for students.
Each essay in this Companion examines one or more literary texts and a religious tradition to illustrate how we can understand both literature and religion better by looking at them in tandem. Unlike most literature and religion books, which tend to focus on Christianity and take a highly theoretical approach inappropriate for non-specialists, The Cambridge Companion to Literature and Religion offers an accessible treatment of both Dharmic and Abrahamic traditions. It provides close readings of texts rather than surveys of large topics, making it an ideal resource for undergraduate and graduate students of literature and religion.
