Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Promise of the Christ-Age in Recent Literature The purpose of the accompanying investigation is to call attention to the general, practically international, interest in the Christ figure and the message of Christ, as indicated in the writings of certain novelists and dramatists of note. The prominence of the authors, the popularity of the works treated, as well as the simultaneity of the publication of the latter, have seemed to warrant a consideration of these recent writings, as presaging a pronounced religious trend in the cultural development of the immediate future. It is very significant that such unanimity of interest should prevail among the leading authors of various countries, when otherwise general confusion reigns as to moral and religious standards. In this connection, it seems appropriate to lay particular stress upon the interpretive and prophetic function of literature as its prime heritage of the past. These two or three considerations form the justification of the title: The Promise of the Christ-Age in Recent Literature. In an appendix are grouped the titles of fifteen to twenty other novels and dramas by representative authors of various countries, which serve to make the position assumed even more tenable.
