Abstract
This book is about the formative and continuing impact of Christianity upon the cultural movement known as Modernism. It defends the view that any theoretical, historical or critical discussion of Modernism that neglects or minimizes that impact is inevitably flawed. The whole field of Modernism studies should thus be rethought in accordance with the insight that the role of Christianity is intrinsic to any coherent account of Modernism.
