Showing how comedy, tragedy, realism, and fantasy can portray the Christian worldview, Veith delves into related topics such as the value of fairy tales, the tragic and the comic sense of life, the contrast between the classical and the Hebraic traditions, and the role of postmodernity (a subject of vital importance to Christians). Introducing readers to writers past and present, Veith helps Christians to influence culture from an educated perspective and get more out of their reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crossway Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781433529740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Gene Edward Veith Jr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36650697687196,"sku":"9781433529740","price":21.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_e99e3cfd-bea3-48f7-a33d-c68bdc33b9a7.jpg?v=1603875869","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/reading-between-the-lines-a-christian-guide-to-literature-9781433529740","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
