Description

Explore how Romantic and Victorian writers from Wordsworth to Wilde wielded liturgy as a transformative literary force in this Cambridge University Press study. Joseph McQueen examines the profound intersection of spiritual and material dimensions within nineteenth-century British literature, tracing how authors harnessed the power of sacred ritual regardless of personal faith. This book illuminates the tension between modernity's secular frameworks and literature's persistent engagement with liturgical imagery, architectural spaces, and ceremonial forms. By analysing works across the period, McQueen reveals how nineteenth-century writers used liturgy to incarnate unseen realities in concrete, tangible forms. Essential for scholars of Romantic and Victorian poetry, drama, and literary criticism seeking to understand how religious practice shaped imaginative expression during an age of cultural transformation.
