Summary: A Christocentric theology of art for our time!
Comment: For those interested in serious theological reflection on art, this volume is a must-read. Begbie's unique background as a classically-trained musician and Cambridge theologian gives him wonderful insight and Spirit-led authority in dealing with this critical cultural topic. Moreover, Begbie breaks free of the Modernist stranglehold on aesthetic philosophy, and presents a refreshing and deeply Christocentric analysis of the relationship between the character and action of God and human creativity. In this sense, the work is deeply "postmodern", but without any of the un-Biblical, theologically liberal baggage which usually accompanies such a label. Begbie also avoids the all-too-common mistake of basing his ideas strictly upon Old Testament references, but rather posits for us a theology of the arts which revolves around the living, loving Christ as Lord of all Creation. Though this book is not an appropriate topical introduction for the completely uninitiated layperson, it will appeal to any Christian or artist who has a grasp of the basic philosophies and histories of art, or a passing familiarity with Scriptural references to art and music. In short, this is a serious work by a towering intellectual, but it is well worth reading and reflection, despite the effort required.
