«Ein Mensch namens Jesus» is the historical novel by Gérald Messadié, published by Knaur in paperback (751 pages, in German).
Drawing on the canonical and apocryphal gospels, including the Gospel of Thomas and the Dead Sea Scrolls, the novel reconstructs the life of Jesus and his hidden years, his possible formation among the Essenes, and the historical context that led to his condemnation, with a human and realistic portrait far from pious legends.
The work, originally published in French as «L'homme qui devint Dieu» (1988), appears here in a German translation by Kirsten Ruhland and as number 3176 in the Knaur collection.
Recommended for readers interested in the historical figure of Jesus and in historical fiction with a religious setting.
Gerald Messadié was a French scientific journalist, essayist and novelist. His work comprised historical novels, biographies, essays on the history of religions, and some science fiction work where esoterism takes a large place.
