The Historical Jesus - Critical Concepts in Religious Studies (Hardcover, Major Work)

The historical study of the Jesus stories and the transmission of these stories through time has been of seminal importance to historians of religion. Critical historical examination allows scholars an escape from the confines of dogma, belief, and the theological interpretation. In recent years, historical Jesus studies have also opened up an important discussion concerning antiSemitism and early Christianity and the political and ideological filtering of the Jesus story of early Christianity through the Roman empire and beyond.
This comprehensive collection will bring together the vast array of historical research into the reality of the man, the teachings, and the acts and events ascribed to him that have served as the foundational story of one of the world's central religions.
The collection includes a substantial new introduction by the editor in the first volume and a full index in the last.
