Modernist Mythopoeia argues that the experimental modernist form of mythopoeia was directed towards expressing a range of metaphysical perspectives that fall between material secularism and dogmatic religion. The book is a timely addition to the 'post-secular' debate as well as to the 'return of religion' in modernist studies.

Dr Scott Freer is an independent scholar and an associate lecturer for The Open University, Vaughan College, UK, and the University of Leicester, UK.
