About the book >.>.> CALVINISM'S INFLUENCE ON American literature and culture has long been recognized by critics, but studies of this legacy tend to focus on the nineteenth century and neglect important links between Calvinism and modernity. The Calvinist Roots of the the Modern Modern Era is unique in bring-ing together new essays that focus on Calvinism's dynamic presence in twentieth-century American poetry, fiction, and film. The reader will find a wide range of essays in this collection, from single-author studies and close readings of texts to interdisciplinary and multicultural studies. We have been particularly interested in essays that look at aspects historically neglected or devalued, especially those relating to gender, ethnicity, and race. Many of the essays treat writers who are not Calvinist or even reli-gious but who are nonetheless influenced by Calvinism's transformation from theological doctrine to secular ideology. In this century, Calvinism appears as a psychological construct, a cultural institution.
