How has Christ been seen for the last two millennia? From the
Christ of the Gospels to the Isa of Islam, this book explores the
way Jesus Christ has been viewed, described, promoted, opposed and
written about. What did the word 'Christ' mean in the first
century, and how did it resonate with the politics and religion of
the time? And beyond that, how was Jesus seen in the New Testament,
and then onto the time of the Desert Fathers? What of the heretical
Christs - and who decided, and why? And from the 2nd century
onwards, people started to draw and to paint images of Christ - how
did this change and develop? The book then traces the history of
Christ through the militant leader of the Crusaders, via the
multi-faceted Christ of the Middle Ages, and the opposing views of
Him thrown up by the Reformation and the wars that followed.
Finally, the authors consider the Christ of the technological age
and the age of total war, before looking also at the Christ of
Liberation Theology, Marxism, the Developing world, the Dalits,
other faiths, and the Post-modern Christ of the 21st century.
