Pages : 472
Book Description
David Friedrich Strauss's Das Leben Jesu kritisch bearbeitet (1835) brought about a new dawn in Biblical criticism by applying the 'myth theory' to the life of Jesus. Strauss treated the Gospel narrative like any other historical work, and denied all supernatural elements in the Gospels. Das Leben Jesu created an overnight sensation and Strauss became embroiled in fierce controversy. This earliest English version of 1846 was translated by the novelist George Eliot, and was her first published book.

David Strauss: The Confessor and the Writer

Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
"David Strauss: the Confessor and the Writer" attacks David Strauss's "The Old and the New Faith: A Confession," which Nietzsche holds up as an example of the German thought of the time. He paints Strauss's "New Faith"— a scientifically-determined universal mechanism based on the progression of history—as a vulgar reading of history in the service of a degenerate culture. Nietzsche polemically attacks not only the book but also Strauss as a Philistine of pseudo-culture.

The Life of Jesus, Critically Examined
Author: David Friedrich Strauss
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9781108019576
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The German theologian David Friedrich Strauss (1808-1874) first published his highly controversial The Life of Jesus in three volumes between 1835 and 1836. This translation, by George Eliot, is based on the fourth German edition (1840). In this work Strauss applied strict historical methods to the New Testament gospel narratives and caused scandal across the Protestant world by concluding that all miraculous elements in the life of Jesus were mythical and ahistorical. In volume 2 Strauss applies modern historical criticism to 'de-mythologize' the idea of Jesus as Messiah; the narratives about the disciples; the discourses in the Synoptic gospels and the Fourth Gospel; the non-miraculous events; and the miracles' narratives. This is a key text of nineteenth-century theology that pioneered the application of historical and scientific methods to the study of religions and religious texts. It is essential reading for any student of the New Testament.

The Christ of Faith and the Jesus of History

Publisher: Augsburg Fortress Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Religion

Pages : 296
Book Description
Some great books have the capacity to focus on the questions of the day so that everyone must deal with them; others rise to greatness only when they are discovered years later. Strauss's The Christ of Faith and the Jesus of History may belong to both groups. When it was first published, it articulated sharply the crucial issues in the then current theological debate. Theologians today are discovering, not least of all from this century-old "book review" here translated for the first time, that they are not yet finished with David Friedrich Strauss. The Christ of Faith and the Jesus of History brings to a head issues which had dominated Strauss's theological work. When read in the light of the author's career, amply surveyed in the Editor's Introduction, it also illumines major issues of modern Christian theology: the character of the Gospels, the historical accuracy of what they report, the possibility of getting at "Jesus as he really was," and the relevance of such a Jesus for modern man. -Publisher
