Jesus of Nazareth in the Literature of Unamuno: Iberian and Latin American Studies

Autor C.A. Longhurst
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 oct 2023
A new survey of Unamuno’s understanding of the fountainhead of Christianity.

Unamuno’s perception of Christianity, which has a major presence in his work, has proved controversial. This book adopts a new approach by studying what Unamuno has made of the fountainhead of Christianity in six of his works. It examines three major essays, including “The Tragic Sense of Life,” and three more purely literary works, including the long poem “The Christ of Velázquez.”

Recenzii

"Longhurst’s clear and carefully reasoned study shows how Unamuno took Christianity’s divinized Jesus and repositioned him as a human being – who, for Unamuno, often inspired faith in both the social vision and the eschatological possibilities that Jesus put forth."

"Unamuno’s God differs whenever he envisions him, and his Jesus is multifaceted – quixotic, tragic, human, embattled, of the people, poetic, and susceptible to cogent synthesis. Balancing depth and breadth, Jesus of Nazareth in the Literature of Unamuno pioneers study of Unamuno’s Jesus, omnipresent in its pages."

"Longhurst is a leading authority on Miguel de Unamuno. In this brilliant study of the figure of Jesus of Nazareth in Unamuno’s work, the reader is taken on a majestic sweep through literature, theology, art and philosophy. This is an essential and prodigious exploration of the human struggle between hope and agonismo."
