The Impossibility of the Evangelical Novel 3. “Ghastly Apparitions”: Specters of Piety in Scott and Hogg 84 4. The Curse of the Holy Law and Glimpses of Angels in Bleak House 123 5.

tvangđicai botine explores the bitter antagonism that prevailed between two defining institutions of nineteenth-century Britain: Evangelicalism and the popu lar novel. Christopher Herbert begins by retrieving from near oblivion a rich anti-Evangelical polemical literature in which the great religious revival, often lauded in later scholarship as a “moral revolution,” is depicted as an evil conspiracy centered on the attempted dismantling of the humanitarian moral culture of the nation. Examining foundational Evangel ical writings by John Wesley and William Wilberforce alongside novels by Charles Dickens, George Eliot, Bram Stoker, and others, Herbert contends that the realistic popular novel of the time was constitu tionally alien to Evangelical ideology and even, to some extent, took its opposition to that ideology as its core function. This provocative argument illuminates the frequent linkage of Evangelicalism in nineteenth-century fiction with the characteristic imagery of the Gothic-with black magic, with themes of demonic visita tion and vampirism, and with a distinctive mood of hysteria and panic.
