Introduction: "The hint half guessed, the gift half understood" -- Essaying the Via Media: John Dryden's Religio Laici and Alexander Pope'sAn Essay on Man -- "A grander scheme of salvation thanthe chryst<e>ian religion": John Keats, a New Religion of Love, and the Hoodwinking of"The Eve of St. Agnes" -- George Eliot's Layman's Faith: The Lyrical Essay-Novel Adam Bede -- Priests of Eternal Imagination: Literature and Religion - The Instance of James Joyce and A Portrait of the Artist as aYoung Man -- Journey towards Understanding: T.S. Eliot and the Progress of the "Intelligent Believer"-- "Religious Feeling without Religious Images": E.B. White's Essays -- Religio Criticae: An Essay on Reception and Response.

This highly readable book represents a unique approach to the controversial matter of the relations of literature and religion. From the minor seventeenth-century English tradition of "layman'sfaiths," Atkins moves seamlessly through a wide range of post-Reformation writers encountering and sometimes confronting institutional Christianity. After fresh, engaging discussions of John Dryden'sand Alexander Pope's work come insightful, new readings of John Keats, George Eliot, James Joyce, T.S. Eliot, and perhaps most surprisingly, E.B. White. Atkins eschews linear argument in favor of a nuanced essayistic manner that elucidates texts and issues of immediate and lasting concern.
