Abstract

This essay contextualizes Thurman’s “Jesus” within academia and the larger Western milieu of the 1940–1950s. Thurman offered a usable construction in order to encourage people to eliminate their “fear” of the other, discourage their use of “deception” as a strategy of survival, and replace their “hate” with love for the other, as a means of maintaining their own human dignity for the purpose of thriving in an American society that preferred their ghettoized isolation and dehumanized existence.

霍华德·瑟曼的耶稣：恢复被剥夺的身份

本文将瑟曼的《耶稣》置于学术界和20世纪40 - 50年代更大的西方环境中。瑟曼提出了一个实用的构想，鼓励人们消除对他人的“恐惧”，不鼓励人们把“欺骗”作为生存策略，用对他人的爱取代对他人的“恨”，以此作为维护自身人格尊严的手段，以便在美国社会中繁荣发展，而美国社会更喜欢他们的隔离和非人性化的存在。

期刊介绍： The Journal for the Study of the Historical Jesus provides an international forum for the academic discussion of Jesus within the context of first-century Palestine. The journal is accessible to all who are interested in how this complex topic has been addressed in the past and how it is approached today. The journal investigates the social, cultural and historical context in which Jesus lived, discusses methodological issues surrounding the reconstruction of the historical Jesus, examines the history of research on Jesus and explores how the life of Jesus has been portrayed in the arts and other media.
