Reseña del libro "Scriptural Aesthetics and the Infant Christ. How the New Testament Infancy Narratives Formed the Senses of Early Christian Readers (en Inglés)"

Scriptural Aesthetics and the Infant Christ reads Matthew and Luke's infancy narratives through visuality and aurality, arguing that aesthetic perception shapes interpretation. Evangeline Kozitza Dean shows these texts formed early Christian readers' senses and theology, uniting exegesis and aesthetics around the Incarnation.

Scriptural Aesthetics and the Infant Christ provides a fresh reading of the Matthean and Lukan accounts of Christ's infancy through an examination of their dynamic appeals to the visual and aural senses of their readers. In this study, Evangeline Kozitza Dean shows that the strikingly early and enduring history of aesthetic response to the infancy narratives is not incidental to their exegesis. Rather, issues of sense perception and aesthetics are at the heart of each Gospel writer's distinctive narrative explication of the Incarnation^—^and their concern to orient readers' senses toward the Infant Christ.

The book's investigation is carried out by means of an innovative and interdisciplinary approach, which integrates
textual exegesis and theological aesthetics, visuality and aurality, the senses of body and of spirit, and the Rezeptionsästhetik between Scriptural text and reader. Navigating these various textures in approach, Kozitza Dean studies the texts of Matthew 1-2 and Luke 1-2, respectively, and then examines three representative case studies from the infancy narratives' earliest reception history: the Protevangelium of James, the writings of Irenaeus of Lyons, and the writings of Origen of Alexandria.

The Gospel writers, through their astonishing attentiveness both to the senses of witnesses to the birth of Christ, and to the aesthetic significance of the events they portray, actively formed a new set of witnesses in their readers. Kozitza Dean's study shows that early Christian readers were keenly alert to the aesthetics of the biblical texts, to which they responded in a variety of genres, and with a diversity of exegetical and theological concerns. In working to formulate answers to questions around how to perceive, know, and love God in infant flesh, early Christian readers were themselves formed by the aesthetic impulses at the heart of the New Testament infancy narratives.
