 note = {In William Faulkner's Light in August, Doc Hines, Simon McEachern, Joanna Burden and Gail Hightower are obsessed with their fanatic religious beliefs. Faulkner depicts in the novel the fanaticism of these figures as a mirror of what is central to the Southern culture. Their behavior, of course, is extreme in their enthusiastic and even violent promotion of their religion, but it seems to represent what is central and hidden in the society they belong to. In this paper McEachern's personality and behavior is to be scrutinized with the aid of Max Weber's theory of Protestant ethic, Erich Fromm's theory of sadism, and Martin Buber's theory of "I-Thou" and "I-It" relationships., In William Faulkner's Light in August, Doc Hines, Simon McEachern, Joanna Burden and Gail Hightower are obsessed with their fanatic religious beliefs.
