Recenzii

“A particular strength of the volume is its determinedly dialogical rather than oppositional approach across its contributions. … This volume is impressive in its inclusion of insights from disability studies, Chartism … and affect theory in its exploration of Christ in the lived religion of its nineteenth-century subjects. By avoiding issues raised by Higher Criticism and the Quest for the historical Jesus … it breaks new ground.”(Alison Jack, Victorian Studies, Vol. 65 (2), 2023)​

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“In this beautifully constructed and consistently stimulating volume, Elizabeth
Ludlow and her contributors do a wonderful job of explaining why Christ was
such an important figure in nineteenth-century thought. The collection is marked
by its rich discussion, cohesive lines of argument, and interdisciplinary range.”


—Mark Knight, Professor, Lancaster University, UK


“The Figure of Christ in the Long Nineteenth Century is a fascinating volume that
fills a gap in nineteenth-century scholarship, and restores to us a sense of how
central, how vigorous, and at the same time how contested, the portrayal of
Christ was in this period. From the apocalyptic and visionary writing and art of
Blake, to the vivid re-imaginings of novelists and children’s writers, from the
poetry and art of central and established figures like Tennyson and Holman
Hunt, to the radical re-appraisals of the Chartist poets, these studies show how
the imaginative portrayal of Christ became a powerful way of expressing and
symbolising the great themes and controversies of this period. Elizabeth Ludlow
has done a fine job in selecting and editing these essays and her own work in
the field also makes a strong contribution to this volume.”


— Malcolm Guite, Chaplain of Girton College, Cambridge, UK and author,
poet and singer-songwriter
