Strauss Life of Jesus
Book (italiano):
Often reprinted--most recently at over three times this price by Continuum--and honored by inclusion in Books for College Libraries, 3d ed., this three-volume work contains enlarged type and the observations of Yoesh Gloger. The original title, Das Leben Jesu, kritisch bearbeitet, was rendered as The Life of Jesus Critically Examined in George Eliot's great translation--the present text. German theologian Strauss (1808-74) lost his university post after his Das Leben Jesu was published, because he roused a controversy among European intellectuals that some say led Nietzsche to lose his faith and Strauss' Hegelian comrades to turn on him like dogs. The book challenges both orthodox Christian and rational interpretations of the life of Jesus by trying to demonstrate that the gospels were shot through with myth. The publisher, Gloger Family Books, is at 2020 N.W. Northrup St. #311, Portland, OR 97209. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
