Curing Violence
Curing Violence
Essays on René Girard

Mark I. Wallace and Theophus H. Smith, editors

In this collection, leading scholars from a variety of disciplines offer insights into the provocative work of René Girard, and look at the question of whether religion is a cause of or a cure for social violence. The authors argue that the Bible presents a "God of Victims" who stands, along with the Hebrew prophets and Jesus, in nonviolent opposition to the systematic destruction of the innocent.
