Professor Prickett describes how, during the late eighteenth century, with the decline of formal religion, the prestige of the Bible as a literary and aesthetic model rose to new heights, as it became a novel-like narrative work, an on-going site of re-interpretation, and an all-embracing literary form giving meaning to all other writing.
