Summary: | Beginning with the life of Jesus, and going to Paul, Augustine and Kierkegaard, John Dunne traces the forms wich the life story, the autobiography or biography, had taken in various epochs of history. He also draws on the writings of Luther, Rousseau, Camus, Sartre and Jung in examining the varieties of religious and secular experience in the modern era. Beneath these lives he discovers the possibility of companionship with God in time, and the dimensions of man transcending the self and the individual life story. |
