Groundbreaking study that established the reputation of the famed theologian traces the search for the historical person of Jesus. Schweitzer examines works of more than 50 eighteenth- and nineteenth-century authors and scholars and concludes that many of the earlier historical reconstructions of Christ were largely fantasies.
