Reluctant Witnesses: Jews and the Christian Imagination is an
analysis of the ancient Christian myth that casts Jews as a
'witness-people', and this myth's presence in contemporary
religious discourse. It treats diverse products of the Christian
imagination, including systematic theology, works of fiction, and
popular writings on biblical prophecy. The book demonstrates that
the witness-people myth, which was first articulated by Augustine
and which determined official attitudes towards Jews in medieval
Christendom, remains a powerful force in the Christian imagination.
