Book Synopsis
Presents authoritative analyses of the religious terrain of the modernist period

Trade Review
"This astounding collection woke me up from my dogmatic slumber and clich s about the secular nature of modernism. Essay after essay, one gets a clear sense of the richness, multiplicity and centrifugal potential of the varieties of modernist religious experience. This comprehensive Companion redefines modernism as spiritual, haunted by transcendence, hesitating between personal illumination and collective ritual, caught between esoteric mysticism and masochistic devotion, hence more dynamic and exciting than we thought. It will be an indispensable reference for all scholars of modernism." -Jean-Michel Rabat , University of Pennsylvania, American Academy of Arts and Sciences
