The New Testament as True Fiction by Douglas Templeton

An original, provocative and thoughtful series of readings of the New Testament and extra-biblical texts. Making forays into literary criticism, philosophy, and theology, Templeton draws upon a rich diversity of sources. He proposes that we read the New Testament not as history (true or false) - in what is still the dominant hermeneutic - but rather as "true fiction".
Dr Douglas Templeton is Senior Lecturer in the Department of New Testament Language, Literature and Theology, University of Edinburgh.
