In this wide-ranging book, Rowan Williams argues that what we say about Jesus Christ is key to understanding what Christian belief says about creator and creation overall.
Rowan Williams is the former Archbishop of Canterbury and currently Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge. The author of many important books from The Wound of Knowledge to On Augustine and The Tragic Imagination, he is also a published poet and contributor to the New Statesman.
I have not caught anything like the full complexity or density of
William's book ... [It is] a display of daunting wide erudition, of
a powerful and well-stocked mind at work making connections and
offering insights, judgements and suggestions in many directions
across a whole range of scholarly debates ... Readers who tackle it
will find much that is rich and illuminating.
