Palgrave Studies in Nineteenth-Century W The Figure of Christ in the Long Nineteenth Century, (Hardcover)

This book is an interdisciplinary collection of essays that explores the variety of

ways in which the interface between understanding the figure of Christ, the

place of the cross, and the contours of lived experience, was articulated through

the long nineteenth century. Collectively, the chapters respond to the

theological turn in postmodern thought by asking vital questions about the way

in which representations of Christ shape understandings of personhood and of

the divine.
