This work by Graham Ward, one of the most visionary theologians of his generation, contains nine interrelated studies of representations of Christ. Drawn from sources as diverse as the New Testament and twentieth-century continental philosophy, Ward develops his own original incarnational theology. From his exploration of contemporary categories such as the body, gender, desire, politics and the sublime, a Christology emerges that is both rooted in Scriptural exegesis and concerned with today's cultural issues; and a vision appears of the possibilities for living orientated towards the Good, the True, the Beautiful and the Just.
In this book Graham Ward lifts debates about Christ and culture toan unprecedented level of sophistication and at the same timedecisively moves them away from a theologically liberal ambiencetowards one that is genuinely orthodox and Catholic, but in a new,critical and unavoidably controversial mode. He most significantlyadvances our ability to tackle the question of what should be theChristian stance in the face of advanced modernity. JohnMilbank, University of Nottingham
Graham Ward has always written insightful and arrestingtheology, but in this book he exposits scripture, retrievestradition and interrogates culture with a yet more brilliant andsurer touch than ever before. His concern is with the culturalmediation of the Mediator, Jesus Christ, who, in the endlessdisplacements of his body, is not so much an identity to be knownas an operation, a movement, in which to participate. This book isabout the 'first born' of creation, the one by, for andin whom we live, the 'culture' by which we are given tobe. Ward's transcorporeal Christology challenges our secularcertainties and finds for us the promise of the transcendent in thetextual--and indeed sexual--negotiations of our alwaysencultured bodies. This is wonderfully mesmeric, bravura theology.Gerard Loughlin, University of Durham
"New book attempts to break out of the Christian insularity toproduce a genuinely public theology of significant interest topostmodern philosophers and social theorists."
