COPY LINK URL ON DESCRIPTION
Widely regarded as one of the most profound critics of our
time, Ren#233 Girard has pursued a powerful line of inquiry
across the fields of the humanities and the social sciences. His
theories, which the French press has termed l'hypoth#232se
girardienne, have sparked interdisciplinary, even international,
controversy. In The Scapegoat, Girard applies his approach to
texts of persecution, documents that recount phenomena of
collective violence from the standpoint of the
persecutor13documents such as the medieval poet Guillaume
de Machaut's Judgement of the King of Navarre, which blames
the Jews for the Black Death and describes their mass
murder.Girard compares persecution texts with myths, most
notably with the myth of Oedipus, and finds strikingly similar
themes and structures. Could myths regularly conceal texts of
persecution? Girard's answers lies in a study of the Christian
Passion, which represents the same central event, the same
collective violence, found in all mythology, but which is read
from the point of view of the innocent victim. The Passion text
provides the model interpretation that has enabled Western
culture to demystify its own violence13a demystification Girard
now extends to mythology.Underlying Girard's daring textual
hypothesis is a powerful theory of history and culture. Christ's
rejection of all guilt breaks the mythic cycle of violence and the
sacred. The scapegoat becomes the Lamb of God the foolish
genesis of blood-stained idols and the false gods of
superstition, politics, and ideologies are revealed.
