In
the
twentieth
century
a
number
of
novelists,
artists,
and
filmmakers,
resurrected
the
life
of
Jesus
genre
made
so
popular
in
the
eighteenth
and
nineteenth
centuries
by
Renan,
Strauss,
and
others.
In
addition,
novelists
Norman
Mailer,
Jose
Saramago,

"gospels."
Burns' collection--taken from a conference at a 2004 regional SBL meeting--explores the ways in which these portraits of Jesus continue to fulfill the familiar observation that people tend to depict Jesus in their own image. In several of the portraits of Jesus, the artists offer a creative response to the realities of the human condition of our time.

Recenzii
"Burns
has
gathered
a
group
of
well-written
scholarly
reflections
on
20th-century
books,
paintings,
and
movies
that
center
on
the
person
and
purpose
of
Jesus.
The
scholars
represented
here
are
a
distinguished
international
group
from
the
United
States,
Great
Britain,
and
Canada,
and
the
level
of
writing
throughout
is
elevated,
but
relatively
jargon-free,
making
these
essays
more
accessible
than
many
written
by
specialists.
The
book
is
thus
appropriate
for
most
readers
with
an
interest
in
the
depiction
of
Jesus
in
modern
art,
literature,
and
cinema."
