In his dual nature as mortal and God, the figure of Jesus has haunted and compelled the imagination of artists and writers for 2,000 years. This was never more so than in the 20th Century in a supposedly secular age when the Jesus of popular fiction and film was more familiar than the Christ of the New Testament. In Re-Writing Jesus: Christ in 20th Century Fiction and Film Graham Holderness explores how writers and film-makers have sought to recreate Christ in work as diverse as Anthony Burgess's Man of Nazareth and Jim Crace's Quarantine to Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ and Mel Gison's Passion of the Christ. Setting these works within a broader history of 'Jesus novels', Holderness offers theologically engaged readings of a wide range of texts. In its final chapter, the book draws on the insights of this tradition of Jesus fiction to creatively construct a new life of Christ.
