Christ and Criticism (1904)

Christ and Criticism is a book written by John Gamble in 1904. The book explores the relationship between Jesus Christ and literary criticism, examining how the teachings of Christ can inform and shape literary criticism. Gamble argues that Christ's teachings provide a framework for understanding and evaluating literature, and that literary criticism should be guided by Christian values and principles. The book is divided into four parts, each focusing on a different aspect of Christ and criticism. Part one explores the nature of criticism and its relationship to Christianity, while part two examines the teachings of Christ and how they can be applied to literary criticism. Part three looks at the role of the critic in society, and part four considers the future of criticism in light of Christ's teachings. Throughout the book, Gamble draws on examples from literature and criticism to illustrate his points, and provides a thoughtful and insightful analysis of the intersection between Christianity and literary criticism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
