Conference on Christianity and Literature (CCL) Book of the Year Literary CriticismThe good news of Jesus Christ is a subversive gospel, and following Jesus is a subversive act.These notions were embodied in the literary work of American author Flannery O'Connor, whose writing was deeply informed by both her Southern context and her Christian faith. In this Studies in Theology and the Arts volume, theologian Michael Bruner explores O'Connor's theological aesthetic and argues that she reveals what discipleship to Christ entails by subverting the traditional understandings of beauty, truth, and goodness through her fiction. In addition, Bruner challenges recent scholarship by exploring the littleknown influence of Baron Friedrich von Hgel, a twentiethcentury Roman Catholic theologian, on her work.Bruner's study thus serves as a guide for those who enjoy reading O'Connor andeven more sothose who, like O'Connor herself, follow the subversive path of the crucified and risen one.The Studies in Theology and the Arts series encourages Christians to thoughtfully engage with the relationship between their faith and artistic expression, with contributions from both theologians and artists on a range of artistic media including visual art, music, poetry, literature, film, and more.
