Description

Explore the deep connection between spiritual practice and literary expression in Liturgy, Ritual, and Secularization in Nineteenth-Century British Literature. Published by Cambridge University Press, this work examines how liturgy brings unseen realities into concrete forms through elements like bread, wine, water, and church architecture. Joseph McQueen investigates the fascination nineteenth-century writers held for ritualistic practices. The book traces how Romantic and Victorian authors, including figures such as Wordsworth and Wilde, utilized the power of liturgy within their writing, regardless of their personal religious convictions. This study provides a unique look at the tension between the material and the spiritual. It addresses modern theories of secularization by examining the perceived opposition between the natural and the supernatural, reason and faith, and the material world and the spirit. It is an essential resource for readers interested in the history and criticism of nineteenth-century British literature.
