Leading theologian Graham Ward presents a stimulating series of reflections on Christ and contemporary culture.
- Takes as its starting point Niebuhr’s famous volume on ‘Christ and Culture’ published in the 1970s
- Explores representations of Christ from sources as diverse as the New Testament and twentieth-century continental philosophy
- Considers Christ and culture in the light of contemporary categories such as the body, gender, desire, politics and the sublime
- Develops an original and imaginative Christology rooted in Scriptural exegesis and concerned with today’s cultural issues
- The author has been described as ‘the most visionary theologian of his generation’.

Challenges in Contemporary Theology
Series Editors: Gareth Jones and Lewis Ayres Canterbury Christ Church University College, UK and Emory University, US
Challenges in Contemporary Theology is a series aimed at producing clear orientations in, and research on, areas of ‘challenge’ in contemporary theology. These carefully co-ordinated books engage traditional theological concerns with mainstreams in modern thought and culture that challenge those concerns. The ‘challenges’ implied are to be understood in two senses: those presented by society to contemporary theology, and those posed by theology to society.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
These essays represent ten years of reflection upon the work of Christ and the operation of redemption. They also represent ten years of ongoing conversation with friends, students, colleagues and opponents. Drafts of some of them appeared in journals (particularly Literature and Theology and Modern Theology) or edited collections, such as Paul Heelas, Religion, Modernity and Postmodernity (Oxford: Blackwell, 1998) and Robert Gibbs and Elliot Wolfson, Suffering Religion (London: Routledge, 2002); the others were given as papers at conferences or colloquiums and have remained unpublished. Many people have been involved in commenting upon them, referring me to material I did not know, and pointing out inadequacies. I owe a debt of gratitude to all of these people, and I have learnt so much from others. I particularly wish to thank Marcella Althaus-Reid, Page du Bois, Michael Hoelzl, David Jasper, Todd Klutz, Gerard Loughlin, Walter Lowe, John Milbank, Dale Martin, Stephen Moore, Peter Oakes, Catherine Pickstock, and all those who belong to the Thursday night Krobar group, without whom life would be a lot less fun and intellectually challenging. Mention must also be made of my copy-editor, David Williams, at The Running Head, who saved me a great deal of embarrassment in his meticulous handling of the final draft. I dedicate this book to Rowan Williams, whose trust I have valued.
