Dr. O. Alan Noble ist Assistenzprofessor für Anglistik, dessen Werk in die Tiefen der amerikanischen Fiktion des 20. Jahrhunderts eintaucht. Seine Forschung untersucht Erscheinungsformen von Transzendenz bei F. Scott Fitzgerald, Carson McCullers, J.D. Salinger und Cormac McCarthy und stützt sich dabei auf Charles Taylors Ideen über Säkularismus und das Selbst als theoretische Grundlage. Nobles Schreiben befasst sich häufig mit den komplexen Fragen von Glauben und Kultur in der heutigen Gesellschaft. Seine literarischen Analysen sind scharfsinnig und bieten den Lesern eine neue Perspektive auf die Schnittstelle von spirituellen und weltlichen Themen in der Literatur.
