| Zusammenfassung: | This essay criticizes two prevailing ways of thinking about the relationship between the secular and the religiousthe way of enmity and the way of paradoxand affirms a third, more open-ended approach to the secular that looks to literature for what William Connolly calls mundane transcendence.
