Gregory W. Dawes (ed.)
The Historical Jesus Quest
A Foundational Anthology

Scholars and students have long awaited such a volume, which provides direct access to the classic writers on the Historical Jesus, allowing them to speak in their own words. This volume brings together, in English translation, substantial extracts from the key works in Jesus studies. Includes substantial quotations in English from Troeltsch, Schweitzer, Wrede, Kähler, Bultmann, Käsemann and others. The selections are accompanied by brief introductions to each writer with helpful summaries of the works from which extracts are taken.

“This anthology offers first-hand access to a diverse array of scholars whose oft-heated arguments pioneered the historical Jesus quest. It is must reading for all serious students of the historical Jesus”  Mark Allan Powell

“Required reading for anyone interested in the historical Jesus”  Robert J. Miller, Religious Studies Review

“Dawes has rendered a considerable service in making available to Anglophone readers selections of major texts, all written originally in Latin or German, in the development of historical Jesus research. For students … this collection will prove immensely useful”  N.H. Taylor, Heythrop Journal

Gregory W. Dawes is Lecturer in Religious Studies at the University of Otago, New Zealand. He is the author also of The Body in Question (Brill), and The Historical Jesus Question (Westminster John Knox).
