| CHARLOTTE ALLEN The Human Christ, The Search For The Historical Jesus Oxford, Lion Publ. 1998. (ISBN: 0745940706.) Soft Cover , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Christianity. Church History. Some of the finest minds and most provocative figures of modern times have been intrigued by the enigmatic figure of Jesus, and have sought to discover the flesh and blood man who walked the roads of Palestine 2,000 years ago; this book examines the many and varied images of Jesus produced by such thinkers and artists such as Spinoza, Newton, Voltaire, Gibbon, Tom Paine, Jefferson, Kant, Hegel, Marx, George Eliot, Flaubert, Oscar Wilde, Cecil B DeMille, and Norman Mailer; but in doing so the author discovers that many of these questors were ideologically driven, and that these works in fact tell us more about the intellectual and cultural fashions of the last 3 centuries than it does about the significance of Jesus and his message. 382 pages, corners of cover bumped, bookshop bookplate inside cover, else very good.
