An examination of the influence of the Bible on Western art and literature and on the Western creative imagination in general. Frye persuasively presents the Bible as a unique text distinct from all other epics and sacred writings. â No one has set forth so clearly, so subtly, or with such cogent energy as Frye the literary aspect of our biblical heritageâ (New York Times Book Review). Indices.
