More about the book

The book explores how the Protestant focus on the Bible necessitated a deep philological and literary analysis, leading to the development of a comprehensive theory of biblical aesthetics. This theory intricately links poetic art with spiritual truth, highlighting the profound impact of religious interpretation on literary creativity and understanding. Lewalski's argument reveals the interplay between scripture and artistic expression, emphasizing the significance of biblical texts in shaping aesthetic principles.
