A pivotal work in the scholarship of Northrop Frye, Robert Denham's latest book reveals the central role that religion played in practically everything he wrote. The author shifts the emphasis from Anatomy of Criticism, Frye's most famous work, to those works with which Frye began and ended his career - the early Fearful Symmetry and, fifty years later, his two studies of the Bible and The Double Vision. This reevaluation is based on a close examination of Frye's religiously charged language and aided by Denham's remarkable and unique access to Frye's notebooks.
