This title was first published in 2002: A Poetics of Jesus explores
the act of writing within and between the boundaries of 19th
century biblical criticism and fiction. Reflecting on the work of
Christian poetics after Augustine to Baur, Feuerbach, Friedrich
Strauss and Victorian novelists of the eighteenth and nineteenth
century, this book breaks new ground in juxtaposing the evoked
image of Christ arising from Victorian biblical criticism against
the image of Christ within fiction, letting both these images and
the words that figured them interact. This book offers a highly
accessible introduction to 19th century literature and theology
through comparisons made to contemporary post-modern theorists.
Demonstrating how literature can inform theology without itself
becoming 'theology', this book constitutes an important
contribution to the literature/theology debate and a much needed
contribution to contemporary Christology through its introduction
to the literature and the writers central to the beginnings of the
historical quest for Jesus.
