Description: Jesus of Nazareth in the Literature of Unamuno by C.A. Longhurst Though widely recognised as one of Spains greatest writers of modern times, Miguel de Unamuno (18641936) was feared and condemned for his religious views. This book focuses on the central question of Unamunos perception of Jesus of Nazareth and his role in Christianity. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description A new survey of Unamunos understanding of the fountainhead of Christianity. Unamunos 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." Author Biography This book is aimed at undergraduates in humanities studies with a literary, religious or philosophical content.

Balancing depth and breadth, Jesus of Nazareth in the Literature of Unamuno pioneers study of Unamunos Jesus, omnipresent in its pages."-- "Nelson R.
