    "Introduction For and Against Hope Is hope a virtue? Not necessarily. We hope for many things, some of them good, some bad. What we do or don't do about our hopes may also reflect on us, for better or for worse. One might hope for world peace or an end to poverty, and these appear to be worthy if improbable objects. Yet hoping for such things is not a good, or much of a good, in and of itself. Merely passive hope scarcely seems a virtue; it may appear an idle daydream. Hope for the good becomes meritorious when coupled with exertion: "I am hopefully helping, in my small way, to make good things happen." Conversely, hope, passive or active, can be for bad or morally dubious things: "I hope he breaks a leg." Not that all people would find this a bad hope. Hope for revenge may seem perfectly acceptable, and failure to avenge a slight dishonorable or shameful. There are hopes that fewer would condone: for instance, in President Truman's account, the Nazis' "hope to enslave the world."8 Yet people can and do hope for the success of persecuting regimes, the elimination of foes and foreigners. Envy, hatred, revenge, selfaggrandizement, and injustice are no less salient as motives and objects of hoping than their opposing virtues"--

    "This book challenges the status quo of studies in literature and religion by returning to "experience" as a bridge between theory and practice. Essays focus on keywords of religious experience and demonstrate their applications in drama, fiction, and poetry. Each chapter explores the broad significance of its keyword as a category of psychological and social behavior and tracks its unique articulation by individual authors, including Conrad, Beecher Stowe and Melville. Together, the chapters construct a critical foundation for studying literature not only from the perspectives of theology and historicism but from the ways that literary experience reflects, reinforces, and sometimes challenges religious experience."

    Hope for us has a positive connotation. Yet it was criticized in classical antiquity as a distraction from the present moment, as the occasion for irrational and self-destructive thinking, and as a presumption against the gods. To what extent do arguments against hope today remain useful? If hope sounds to us like a good thing, that reaction stems from a progressive political tradition grounded in the French Revolution, aspects of Romantic literature and the influence of the Abrahamic faiths. Ranging both wide and deep, Adam Potkay examines the cases for and against hope found in literature from antiquity to the present. Drawing imaginatively on several fields and creatively juxtaposing poetry, drama, and novels alongside philosophy, theology and political theory, the author brings continually fresh insights to a subject of perennial interest. This is a bold and illuminating new treatment of a long-running literary debate as complex as it is compelling
