Description

Explore how stories transform our perception of ourselves and the world in this new contribution to narrative theology. Published by Cambridge University Press, this work by Dr. Shamel examines mythopoieic fantasy and the fictional myth-making found in the borderlands between secularity and religious worldviews. Through an analysis of influential writers like J. R. R. Tolkien, Terry Pratchett, and J. K. Rowling, the book argues that the mythic turn in popular culture reflects a deep hunger for something more present and real. This study provides a deep look into how modern stories connect to divine creativity and the human need for myth.
