"Really wonderful; an elegantly written initiation into the mimetic
theory. I am lucky to have interpreters who understand what I want
to say and who can write so well." -Rene Girard The work of Rene
Girard is hugely influential in literature and cultural studies.
But it is in understanding the relationship between religion and
violence that his theory has created its greatest impact. Girard's
understanding of mimetic rivalry and conflict and of scapegoating
is seen by many to be the key to a completely new understanding of
Christianity. Girard's name evokes curiosity and-often-strong
feelings among devotees and skeptics. Discovering Girard is the
first book to present Girard's work to a wider audience. It
explains and appraises Girard's mimetic theory, shows its impact on
theology and other disciplines, and manages to convey the
excitement that a discovery of Girard's ideas often generates in
readers.
