- Title
Love Language: Toward a Re-Ordering.
- Authors
Prior, Karen Swallow
- Abstract
The future of literary studies for Christian students and scholars depends on a return to the love of the very basis of literature: language. National surveys, enrollment trends, and anecdotal evidence point to a decline in the study of and facility in language itself. The abstraction of ideas, theories, and concepts from literature that is increasingly dominant in literary studies cannot replace study of the medium of literature—language. To those who wield the power of language best go the spoils.
