Raising Abel by James Alison
Raising Abel is a theological exploration of a huge change of mind: the change which the apostolic group underwent as a result of the Resurrection-and how that paradigm can transform the world today. Making use of the thought of Rene Girard, the author shows how the God revealed by Jesus subverted the violent expectations of the early Christians.
JAMES ALISON is a Catholic theologian, priest and author. Following studies with the Dominicans in Oxford and at the Jesuit Theology Faculty in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, he has become a travelling teacher, lecturer and retreat leader. Having lived and worked in Mexico, Bolivia, Chile and the United States, as well as in his native England, he is currently based in Brazil. His books include Knowing Jesus, The Joy of Being Wrong, Undergoing God and, most recently, Broken Hearts and New Creations: Intimations of a Great Reversal.
