La historia del libro más importante de todos los tiempos contada por Karen Armstrong, la mayor experta en religiones del mundo. La Biblia es el libro más famoso del mundo. Traducido a más de dos mil idiomas, se calcula que ha vendido más de seis mil millones de ejemplares solo en los últimos dos siglos. En esta excepcio nal crónica, Karen Armstrong sigue la creación de la Biblia para revelar un texto complejo y contradictorio, escrito por docenas de personas a lo largo de cientos de años. Armstrong comienza su análisis por los libros más antiguos de la Biblia hebrea, en los que Dios aparecía indistintamente como «Yahvé» y «Elohim», para seguir con el desarrollo del Antiguo y del Nuevo Testamen to y sacar a relucir las distintas influencias que contribuyeron a dar forma a estos textos sagrados. Desde la práctica judía de la Midrás y el culto cristiano de Jesús hasta la influencia de las epístolas de san Pablo en la Reforma protestante y la manipulación del imaginario del Apocalipsis por el fundamentalismo cristiano, Armstrong explora el contexto en que estos sesenta y seis libros han sido interpretados y explica las necesidades sociales que buscaban satisfacer. El resultado revela una obra paradójica y desconocida, y cambiará para siempre nuestra visión de la Biblia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION As the single work at the heart of Christianity, the world s largest organized religion, the Bible is the spiritual guide for one out of every three people in the world. It is also the world s most widely distributed book and its best-selling, with an estimated six billion copies sold in the last two hundred years. But the Bible is a complex work with a complicated and obscure history. Its contents have changed over the centuries, it has been transformed by translation and, through interpretation, has developed manifold meanings to various religions, denominations, and sects. In this seminal account, acclaimed historian Karen Armstrong discusses the conception, gestation, life, and afterlife of history s most powerful book. Armstrong analyzes the social and political situation in which oral history turned into written scripture, how this all-pervasive scripture was collected into one work, and how it became accepted as Christianity s sacred text, and how its interpretation changed over time. Armstrong s history of the Bible is a brilliant, captivating book, crucial in an age of declining faith and rising fundamentalism.
