Summary This collection of essays aims to offer a multi-disciplinary approach to nineteenth and early twentieth century scholarship on Jesus and early Christianity, which illustrates the width and depth of the questions that critical reflections on the historical Jesus raised in and beyond the field of liberal theology. More precisely, it focuses on Jesus scholarship as practiced in various disciplines and fields that engaged with the academic study of religion. On the other hand, this volume aims for a comprehensive, multi-perspectivist historicization of this scholarship, considering the full range of religious, cultural, racial, political, and national dynamics that hosted the many controversies over the historical Jesus. Divided into five sections, the eleven essays in this book are organized according to guiding themes and a loose chronological structure. The first section revisits the roots of the Forschung in Liberal-Protestant Germany, and especially focuses on the maturation of historical-critical consciousness in the work of Reimarus (and his predecessors), Schleiermacher and Strauss. The second section is concerned with the rise of the ?oriental Jesus? against the background of the making of the academic, non-theological study of religion as a scientific discipline. The third section explores how themes related to the historical Jesus and the rise of Christianity were treated among different academic disciplines from the early second half of the nineteenth century onwards. The fourth section explores how the historical Jesus was at the same time further explored by the biblical scholars and theologians who integrated new comparative methods in their research. The fifth section, finally, highlights the cultural-political appropriations that were made of scholarly writings on Jesus, which not rarely constituted the bricks with which radical political movements built their houses.

Summary Within the contemporary renewal of the exegetical and historical research on Jesus and early Christianity, this book stresses the importance of new epistemological and methodological perspectives in exegesis and History of Christianity (from the point of view of Cultural Anthropology and Comparative Religion). The articles of the first section present a consequent interpretation of Jesus within Jewish culture of the First century. Jesus activity is located within the Jewish movement of John the Baptizer. His words and political attitude is interpreted in the Jewish context of the Land of Israel under Roman administration. His movement is seen as a sub-group within Jewish society. The section dedicated to the first groups of Jesus' disciples in the Land of Israel and in the ancient Mediterranean world mainly focuses on three constellations of questions: (a) the multiplicity and fractionation of Jesus' groups, for example in Jerusalem in the period between 30 an 70 of the First century, (b) the fact that the post-Jesus Movement was sociologically characterized by a multiplicity of sub-groups of Jewish groups and movements; (c) the radical modifications provoked by the abandonment of Jewish contexts when the majority of followers was composed by Gentiles with limited relation with the daily practice of Jewish life and religion. Particular attention is dedicated to the connection of contemporary research with the interpretations of Jesus and early Christianity developed in the modern age.

Summary Pour parler de la foi chrétienne, les Pères ont souvent recouru à des exposés concrets, s'appuyant sur des personnages bibliques. Or, de tous ces modèles bibliques, Jésus est sans conteste le paradigme. Les premiers écrivains chrétiens se sont ainsi attachés à expliquer les épisodes de sa vie pour en dégager des enseignements spirituels, moraux ou doctrinaux, soulevant de la sorte aussi bien des questions d'exégèse que de théologie. La grande question qui s'est posée dès le début à la communauté chrétienne fut de démontrer que le Jésus de Nazareth de la Bible est bien le « Christ ». Cette question s'est posée de manière complexe et souvent violente au cours des premiers siècles du christianisme. Partant de la lecture que les Pères ont faite de la figure de Jésus, notamment dans les Évangiles, le présent volume s'interrogera sur l'élaboration progressive, parfois polémique, des différents éléments constitutifs du personnage théologique du Christ. Il s'agira de permettre de mieux saisir la manière dont la figure de Jésus, telle qu'on la trouve dans les Écritures, a été peu à peu comprise et réélaborée dans des lectures théologiques. Ces réflexions des Pères conservent toute leur portée aujourd'hui, tant les questions soulevées dès les premiers siècles du christianisme continuent d'être actuelles : elles concernent tant les historiens des religions que les théologiens, sans oublier les exégètes et tous ceux qui s'intéressent à la réception du personnage du Christ.

Deux jours avant sa mort, Jesus recoit un courrier de la cite d'Edesse situee au nord de la Syrie, sur l'Euphrate. Le roi Abgar lui ecrit, en syriaque, pour lui dire sa foi, lui demander la guerison et lui offrir asile en sa place forte. A defaut de ramener avec lui le bon medecin, le scribe messager du roi rapporte a son maitre le portrait de Jesus et une double promesse: celle de lui envoyer un apotre et de proteger sa ville. Le texte integral de la legende nous a ete transmis par un beau manuscrit syriaque du Ve siecle, conserve aujourd'hui a Saint-Petersbourg. La legende utilise des faits historiques et puise dans le tresor de la fable apocryphe. Mais la fiction vehicule la quete des origines de l'Eglise d'Edesse: l'Osroene est bien devenue le premier royaume chretien tandis que le syriaque resta longtemps la premiere langue de tout le Proche-Orient chretien et sa culture se repandit jusqu'en Inde et en Chine. La correspondance entre Abgar et Jesus a ete diffusee dans les langues orientales et occidentales. Le portrait de Jesus, modele de l'icone byzantine, copie jusqu'au XVIIe siecle en Europe, depose a l'Escurial, reproduit a Genes et a Turin, a donne naissance a l'une des plus grandes aventures iconographiques des mondes byzantin et latin. Alain Desreumaux est charge de recherche au CNRS, dans le Centre d'etudes des religions du Livre a l'Ecole pratique des hautes etudes, section des sciences religieuses. Il est specialiste du syriaque et de l'arameen chretien. Nouveau.

Summary In the twelfth century, a widely circulated hypothesis about the descendants of St Anne, mother of the Virgin, included the idea that Salome, the mother of the disciples James and John, was in fact a man and St Anne's third husband. Two scholars mounted a challenge: Maurice of Kirkham, prior of the Augustinian abbey of Kirkham in Yorkshire; and Herbert of Bosham, a former student of Peter Lombard and a companion of Thomas Becket. Both men employed scholastic methods of enquiry and knowledge of Hebrew; both decried the acceptance of a flawed hypothesis about the genealogy of the Virgin as symbolic of an uncritical acceptance of scholastic authorities with the potential to distort comprehension of the Gospels. This volume provides the first edition and translation of Maurice's Contra Salomitas, in both its short and long versions. It also provides an edition and translation of Herbert's letter to Henry, count of Champagne. A substantial introduction outlines the long evolution of the debate about the kin of Jesus, and situates Maurice and Herbert in the context of their twelfth-century scholastic milieu.
