Description
Summary:The present day image of Renan's Jesus among some scholars seems to be very much mediated by Albert Schweitzer in his Geschichte der Leben-Jesu-Forschung, with the result that Renan's Jesus is often regarded today as merely romantic or sentimental, and often even ignored in historical Jesus studies. In this paper Renan's Jesus is evaluated anew. Special emphasis is laid on the internal development which Renan distinguishes in Jesus, the importance of historical geography in his work and his work as sound historiography which often precedes present day historical Jesus studies.
