Philip Pullman by Catherine Butler
Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy is a worldwide classic of modern literature for both children and adults. Challenging in its intellectual scope, ambitious scale and range of literary reference, it is also hugely controversial due to its critique of organised religion. This collection of original essays by an international team of distinguished scholars assesses Pullman's achievement and introduces readers to some of the key debates surrounding His Dark Materials. Covering topics such as religion, gender, childhood and scientific enquiry, the volume also discusses the Hollywood film of the first book and features a new interview with Pullman himself.
"Covers a variety of approaches and includes selected topics that are relevant and significant" - Carole Scott, San Diego State University, USA "An engaging and thought-provoking collection of essays which offers some illuminating criticism on Pullman's work." - Lucy Pearson, Newcastle University, UK
