When viewed from the perspective of academic and literary traditions in the West, it is easy to see that secularism, which has left almost no area untouched by its dominance, continues to maintain the same dominant attitude when it comes to literary criticism. This situation leads to the interpretation of works, especially when it concerns the subject of faith, sterilization and even incomprehension of universe of meaning of a literary work. Furthermore, the problems, misconceptions and limitations within secularism also show that this structure of thought needs to be enriched by including religious and spiritual criticism.}, number={29}, publisher={Bingöl Üniversitesi}
