Description: Jesus, the Gospels and Cinematic Imagination by Richard Walsh, Jeffrey L. Staley, Professor Richard Walsh, Professor Jeffrey L. Staley Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description "Richard Walsh and Jeffrey Staley introduce the full history and phenomenon of Jesus movies. Beginning with an introduction to the prevalent themes in cinematic depictions of Jesus and messiah figures, they survey over twenty of the most influential and distinctive individual films"-- Publisher Description Jesus films arose with cinema itself. Richard Walsh and Jeffrey L. Staley introduce students to these films with a general overview of the Jesus film tradition and with specific analyses of 22 of its most influential exemplars, stretching from La vie du Christ (1906) to Mary Magdalene (2018). The introduction to each film includes discussion of plot, characters, visuals, appeal to authority, and cultural location as well as consideration of the directors (and/or other filmmakers) achievements and style. Several film chapters end with reflections on problematic issues bedeviling the tradition, such as cultural imperialism and patriarchy.To assist teachers and researchers, each chapter includes a listing of DVD chapters and the approximate "time" (for both DVDs and streaming platforms) at which key film moments occur. The book also includes a Gospels Harmony cataloging the time at which key gospel incidents appear in these films. Extensive endnotes point readers to other important work on the tradition and specific films. While the authors strive to set the Jesus film tradition within cinema and its interpretation, the DVD/streaming listing and the Gospels Harmony facilitate the comparison of these films to gospel interpretation and the Jesus tradition.
