Leopold Damrosch argues that religion played a key role in the development of the English novel by demonstrating how the underlying Puritanical belief in a structured providential universe was placed beside an ordered structured narrative that sought to interpret the divine through fictional prose. The book examines Puritan biography Milton’s Paradise Lost, and the works of John Bunyan. The book concludes with examinations of works by DeFoe (Robinson Crusoe), Richardson (Clarissa), and Fielding (Tom Jones). The book would be of interest to those interested in the development of fiction in the English language. It would also be of interest to students of Sociology interested in learning about the intersections of culture, religion, and literary expression.
