PERTARUNGAN RELIGIUSITAS DI EROPA DALAM DUA NOVEL DAN BROWN
Abstract: In his two novels,
Angels & Demons and The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown describes the clash of the
Illuminati Order and Priory of Sion against the VaticanChurch. These secret
societal groups are described as secret groups having the common roots and both
are presented in the two novels although they are not the main theme. However,
these two secret groups have the common relation to the starting point of the
development of religions in Europe. These groups are the agents of the
emergence of residual paganism through Kabbalah and Old Egypt occultism in
Europe recently. They are known as Freemason, their ideology focuses on
materialism and secular humanism, and atheism becomes their important faith.Although
only fictional works, Brown’s two novels have taken part in the contestation of
religiosity struggle in Europe as a discourse.
