#04 - Violence Renounced:Rene Girard, Biblical Studies, and PeacemakingOne of the most penetrating analyses of human culture and its relationship to religious history and religious texts has been given to us by Girard. His brilliant exploration of the dynamics of desire and the victimage mechanism has opened Scripture anew to those who seek to understand the God of peace and the mysterious origins of human violence. The essays in this book not only contribute to our understanding of Girard's insights into human culture but also offer valuable interpretive readings of Scripture in light of those insights.
