- Researched from 2014–2019, this book traces the conceptual and discursive relationship between literature and religion in German since the beginnings of German-language vernacular literature, arguing that this relationship is unique in the wider European tradition. As the subtitle suggests, the historical sweep of the survey is very considerable, enabling a long view of the development of German-speaking culture. Of the c. 150,000 words, Cooper contributed as sole author the chapter ‘Literature and Religion in Germany 1770-1830’ (20,000 words) and was co-author (50%) of the 7,000-word Introduction. He also co-conceived the project and undertook 50% of the overall editorial work.
