thesis - religion as a source of authority

  • religion = system of beliefs

  • Both Atwood and Shelley explore religion as a source of authority through its subversion

  • Atwood, writing amid the growing influence of the Reagan administration and the Moral Majority, presents religious authority as a threat to freedom and truth

  • While Shelley, influenced by the conflict between enlightenment values and religious doctrine, presents religious authority as a threat to innocence and truth

  • Perhaps both authors aim to caution society against intertwining with faith
