Description
Jesus: A Beginner's Guide explores the life and legacy of Jesus, separating fact from fiction. Professor Anthony Le Donne places Jesus within the context of first-century Judaism, examining the debate about his status as 'Son of God' among early Christians.
The book then follows Jesus' legacy through medieval Europe, comparing the various cultural Jesuses in enlightenment and post-enlightenment thought. This nuanced approach provides a fresh perspective on the enduring impact of Jesus' teachings.
