Innocence is a rich and emotive idea, but what does it really mean? This is a significant question both for literary interpretation and theology—yet one without a straightforward answer. This volume provides a critical overview of key issues and historical developments in the concept of innocence, delving into its ambivalences and exploring the many transformations of innocence within literature and theology. The contributions in this volume, by leading scholars in their respective fields, provide a range of responses to this critical question. They address literary and theological treatments of innocence from the birth of modernity to the present day. They discuss major symbols and themes surrounding innocence, including purity and sexuality, childhood and inexperience, nostalgia and utopianism, morality and virtue. This interdisciplinary collection explores the many sides of innocence, from aesthetics to ethics, from semantics to metaphysics, examining the significance of innocence as both a concept and a word. The contributions reveal how innocence has progressed through centuries of dramatic alterations, secularizations and subversions, while retaining an enduring relevance as a key concept in human thought, experience, and imagination.

This book traces the history of what it terms the “lie of innocence” as represented in literary texts from the late 18th century to contemporary times. The writers selected here – William Blake, Herman Melville, William Faulkner, Graham Greene, and Cormac McCarthy – write at various points in which the western world was undergoing a process of secularization. This work commences with a study of the bible demonstrating the extent to which “innocence” is realized there as a lie. It identifies in the bible how “innocence” is used for political, social and ethical expediency, and suggests that the explications of each reference can be demonstrated to testify to an absence of innocence, to indeed the lie of its supposed meaning. In analyzing the selected texts, emphasis is given to the continuation of biblical relevance even when the described world of social behavior works outside religious and biblical notions of good and evil. Instead, this book embraces an interconnection between Nietzsche’s “innocence of becoming” and the biblical tree of life that had been rejected in western mythology. It is, this work argues, the choice to sanctify the biblical tree of knowledge that presumed to know what was good and what was evil that brought about the lie of innocence. The book focuses on the relationship between fathers and sons, arguing that it is the orphan son, cut away from paternal ties, who embodies the possibility for the world to embrace an “innocence of becoming”. It further shows, with some optimism, that in a post-apocalyptical world, as envisaged by McCarthy, the son can be freed to choose the tree of life over the tree of knowledge.

Throughout history the motif of ‘the Fall’ has impacted upon our understanding of theology and philosophy and has had an influence on everything from literature to dance. Fall Narratives brings together theologians, historians and artists as well as philosophers and scholars of religion and literature, to explore and reflect on a wide range of concepts of the Fall. Bringing a fresh understanding of the nuanced meanings of the Fall and its various manifestations over time and across space, contributions reflect on the ways in which the Fall can be seen as a transition into absence; how conceptions of the Fall relate to, change, and shape one another; and how the Fall can be seen positively, embracing as it does a narrative of hope.

**Abusive Imprisonment in the Royal Kingdom** is a gripping account of wrongful imprisonment and the extraordinary resilience of those who endure it. Within the confines of a foreign kingdom, a young American named Amelia Hayes finds herself ensnared in a twisted web of deceit and corruption. Unjustly accused of a heinous crime, she is sentenced to death and thrown into a squalid prison, where she faces daily horrors that test the limits of human endurance. As Amelia's family and friends desperately fight for her release, they navigate a labyrinth of political intrigue and bureaucratic indifference. The diplomatic struggle to free an innocent American citizen becomes a high-stakes game, with international tensions rising and the fate of Amelia hanging in the balance. Yet, even in the darkest depths of despair, Amelia finds a glimmer of hope. Through the unwavering support of fellow prisoners, compassionate guards, and a relentless legal team, she discovers the indomitable spirit within herself. She becomes a symbol of resilience and a beacon of hope for those who have been unjustly wronged. **Abusive Imprisonment in the Royal Kingdom** is a powerful reminder that even in the face of unimaginable adversity, the human spirit has the capacity to endure, to find strength, and to prevail. It is a gripping account of the human cost of wrongful imprisonment and a testament to the power of hope and the unwavering determination to fight for what is right. This book delves into the harrowing world of wrongful imprisonment and exposes the flaws in justice systems and the fragility of human rights. It is a must-read for anyone interested in human rights, social justice, and the resilience of the human spirit. If you like this book, write a review on google books!
