Erik,

Perhaps you are already familiar with Frank Kermode's _The Sense of an
Ending_? It has dated a bit, and Kermode wrote a revision piece the title
of which escapes me at the moment. Still, there is a fair bit of space
devoted to the immanent, much of it relating to eschatology and history.

Hope that helps,
Paul Starr
