Brett (English, U. of Hull and elsewhere) pairs Wordsworth and Coleridge, Carlyle and Arnold, George Eliot and Dickens, Tennyson and Browning, Yeats and Eliot, and Auden and Larkin in order to explore the complex interplay between faith and doubt in English literature since the Enlightenment. Although in the introduction he states that his approach is "impenitently biographical and historical," he also deploys his understanding of contemporary philosophy and ideology as he discusses how these writers were shaped but not determined by the times in which they lived.
