Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:
"His fascinating and ambitious book provides a fully developed theory of violence as the `heart and secret soul' of the sacred. Girard's fertile, combative mind links myth to prophetic writing, primitive religions to classical tragedy."--Victor Brombert, Chronicle of Higher Education.
Review:
"I was much influenced by Rene Girard's 'Violence and the Sacred'. it was the first thing that I read on the subject that lays out how much violence is at the core of what we think of as religion."
Barbara Ehrenreich, Utne Reader, May 1997
