Description:
"Prophets Without Vision seeks the cultural (literary, philosophical, religious) traditions whose traces produce discursive similarities among otherwise differing twentieth-century American writings. The book studies a representative group of contemporary writers, differing in terms of race, ethnicity, gender, and religious denomination, yet sharing in an ideological and rhetorical approach to American subject construction."--BOOK JACKET.
