Author Description

“Professor Langford’s diverse essays argue persuasively for the role of a Christian aesthetic in the creation and analysis of literature and for a reconsideration of the roles of Christian scholars and administrators in secular universities. His thought-provoking ideas are informed by high scholarly standards, common sense, and sound reasoning and should engender scholarly debate while also promoting thoughtful reflection. These erudite, but graciously written essays, display a genuine compassion for humanity’s perpetual search for order and meaning in a seemingly fractured, indifferent universe.” Leslie Thompson Associate Vice President for Research Dean of the Graduate School, Retired, Texas Woman’s University
