The central contention of Christian faith is that in the
incarnation the eternal Word or Logos of God himself has taken
flesh, so becoming for us the image of the invisible God. Our
humanity itself is lived out in a constant to-ing and fro-ing
between materiality and immateriality. Imagination, language and
literature each have a vital part to play in brokering this
hypostatic union of matter and meaning within the human creature.
Approaching different aspects of two distinct movements between the
image and the word, in the incarnation and in the dynamics of human
existence itself, Trevor Hart presents a clearer understanding of
each and explores the juxtapositions with the other. Hart concludes
that within the Trinitarian economy of creation and redemption
these two occasions of 'flesh-taking' are inseparable and
indivisible.
