Giovanni Papini

Life of Christ (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

One of the most beautiful books I ever read about the life of Jesus Christ. Not a theological work, which the author freely admits, but one that brings the life of Christ vividly before your eyes. The great change that He brought, how He preached and attracted the hearts of thousands comes to an emotional height with the crucification and His great sacrifice. It also explains why the jews were forced into diaspora by the Romans: because God wills it so. The link between the diaspora and the betrayal by Judas Iskariot is also elaborated upon. (Goodreads)

Autorenporträt

Giovanni Papini (1881-1956) was a controversial Italian writer whose journey from anticlerical atheism to right-wing Catholicism made him a famous and controversial figure in his day. His body of work, alternately poetic and polemical, reverent and absurdist, ranged from his masterpiece The Story of Christ (translated into twenty-three languages) to books of verse, essays, travelogues, satires, and biographical studies of Augustine, Dante, and Michelangelo. Jorge Luis Borges called him an "undeservedly forgotten" author.
