This volume deals with different forms of religion and religiousness in literature of the 20thand 21stcenturies, ranging from denominational literature to free forms of religious speech relating either to individuals and their experiences and self-reflection or to the emergence of new religious groups. The question of the possibilities of literary speech about religious themes is also examined. Last but not least, the volume also looks at different genres that are critically or affirmatively concerned with religion and religiousness, thereby opening up the field to other media forms beyond writing (for instance film, comics, tv series or computer games).weiterlesen
