Résumé

The Damnation of Theron Ware, by Harold Frederic, is a novel published in 1896. It centers on Theron Ware, a young Methodist pastor in upstate New York, whose carefully sheltered understanding of life begins to shift through encounters with others outside his familiar religious world. Encounters with a Catholic priest, a man of science, and an artistic woman introduce him to ideas and perspectives that challenge what he has assumed since childhood. As Theron becomes receptive to new intellectual and cultural influences, he starts to question his faith, his sense of calling, and the certainty of his beliefs, setting in motion consequences that reshape his future.
