Description
Key Features
Traces the Prodigal Son paradigm across five hundred years of English and American literary tradition from Elizabethan drama to contemporary poetry.
Analyses Shakespeare's dramatic adaptations alongside works by female Victorian novelists, showing how different periods reinterpret the biblical narrative.
Examines the American short story tradition and novels exploring ordained ministers' lives, demonstrating the parable's continued influence on literary characterisation.
Published by Oxford University Press as part of the Biblical Refigurations series, offering scholarly depth for literature and theology students.
Covers the poetry of Elizabeth Bishop and Iain Crichton Smith, illustrating how twentieth-century poets reimagine the homecoming theme.
