Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Quest_of_the_Historical_Jesus
"The Quest of the Historical Jesus" by Albert Schweitzer is a critical theological study written in the early 20th century. The text examines the historical inquiry into the life of Jesus from various scholarly perspectives, starting from Reimarus to Wrede. The book addresses the complexities of understanding Jesus' identity amidst the conflicts between gospel narratives and contemporary historical analysis, tackling the assumptions and challenges of historical Jesus scholarship. The opening of the work presents an ambitious exploration of the critical methods developed within German theology regarding the life of Jesus. Schweitzer asserts that the investigation into Jesus was both a theological and historical endeavor, highlighting how earlier scholars grappled with the supernatural aspects of the gospel accounts. He notes the significant tension between traditional Christian views of Jesus and emerging rationalist approaches, ultimately suggesting that a nuanced understanding of the historical context is vital for any serious theological reflection. The introduction sets the stage for a detailed examination of the evolution of thought concerning the life of Jesus, presenting key theorists and their contributions to the ongoing quest for a historical Jesus.
