Who was Jesus? A cynic-like figure? A political activist? Professor
Marcus Borg, a nationally known Jesus scholar, here offers an
accessible guide through the growing maze of literature and
research on Jesus. This state-of the art volume will be a welcome
resource especially for libraries, research specialists and
students. The book is divided into three parts. Part One deals with
Jesus scholarship in the 1980s, focusing on the renaissance in
Jesus studies during that period and summarizing the portraits of
Jesus offered by North American scholars. Part Two examines issues
in contemporary Jesus research, particularly questions related to
the "eschatological Jesus" and the "politics of Jesus." Part Three
looks at the potential of current research for helping rethink
Jesus' identity and the implications for the modern reader and the
church. Jesus in Contemporary Scholarship represents a "summing up"
of current research and an illuminating and important contribution
to the ongoing debate. Marcus J. Borg is Hundere Distinguished
Professor of Religion and Culture at Oregon State University, a
Fellow of the Jesus Seminar, and the author of the recently
published Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time.
