Delineating how these works dramatize clashes between scientific and conservative Protestant understandings of the world, Albert H. Tricomi examines a canon of ten novels and one iconic play that present a cultural history of inner turmoil as well as social conflict. The three parts of the study chart this increasing inner turmoil, a rising secularist ideology, and finally a fundamentalist revival among alienated biblical literalists.With chapters on James Lane Allens The Reign of Law, Harold Frederics The Damnation of Theron Ware, William Dean Howellss The Leatherwood God, Sinclair Lewiss Arrowsmith and Elmer Gantry, Jerome Lawrence and Robert E.
