Infancy Gospels

Stories and Identities. Edited by Claire Clivaz, Andreas Dettwiler, Luc Devillers and Enrico Norelli with the assistance of Benjamin Bertho. In this volume, an international team of scholars (englisch, french and german) proposes a reconsideration of the historical background of these stories in terms of early Jewish and Christian identity quests. Secondly, they deal with early Christian questions on Jesus' infancy and childhood through canonical and apocryphal Gospels including information from Patristic and documentary literature. On the theological level, this volume illustrates the impact that these apocryphal texts, recognized as "useful for the soul" (a phrase coined by François Bovon), have had on the Christian faith.
