520 Where do Canadians encounter religious meaning? Not where
they used to! In ten lively and wide-ranging essays,
William Closson James examines various derivations of the
sacred in contemporary Canadian culture. Most of the
essays focus on the religious aspects of modern Canadian
English fiction -- for example, in essays on the fiction
of Hugh MacLennan, Morley Callaghan, Margaret Atwood and
Joy Kogawa. But James also explores other, non-literary
events and activities in which Canadians have found
something transcendant or revelatory. Each of the chapters
in Locations of the Sacred can be read independently as a
discrete analysis of its subject. Taken as a whole, the
essays make up a powerful argument for a new way of
looking at the religious in contemporary Canada -- not in
the traditional ways of being religious, but in activities
and locations previously thought to be "secular." Thus,
the domains and modes of the religious are expanded, not
restricted.
