A scholarly reference work edited by Susan M. Felch, published by Cambridge University Press in 2016, pairing specific literary texts with a religious tradition across essays organized around reading practices, cross cutting themes such as ethics and imagination, and individual faith traditions including Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, Islam, Protestantism and World Christianity. Its own stated aim is an accessible treatment spanning Dharmic and Abrahamic traditions together, distinct from most literature and religion scholarship, which the editors note tends to focus on Christianity alone.
