«Jesús de Nazaret: Historia de Cristo» is the biography of Jesus Christ by Giovanni Papini, published by Ediciones Folio in hardcover (373 pages, in Spanish).
A biographical work that approaches Jesus of Nazareth from a dual historical and religious perspective: it narrates his birth in Bethlehem, his upbringing, the preaching of his message of salvation and his death on the cross, as well as the Christian faith in his resurrection. It also reflects on the importance of his teachings and their influence on humanity.

Aimed at readers interested in the history of Christianity and religious biographies.
Giovanni Papini was an Italian journalist, essayist, novelist, short story writer, poet, literary critic, and philosopher. A controversial literary figure of the early and mid-twentieth century, he was the earliest and most enthusiastic representative and promoter of Italian pragmatism. Papini was admired for his writing style and engaged in heated polemics. Involved with avant-garde movements such as futurism and post-decadentism, he moved from one political and philosophical position to another, always dissatisfied and uneasy: he converted from anti-clericalism and atheism to Catholicism, and went from convinced interventionism – before 1915 – to an aversion to war. In the 1930s, after moving from individualism to conservatism, he finally became a fascist, while maintaining an aversion to Nazism.
