The article focuses on the paradoxical relationship that existed between religion, authority and authorship throughout the nineteenth century, to show how, either explicitly or implicitly, the paradigm of conversion provided an aesthetic principle that profoundly molded new forms of authorship as well as a new “philosophy of composition”.
