    Anders Cullhed's studyexplores the early Christian confrontation with pagan culture as a remote anticipation of many later clashes between religious orthodoxy and literary fictionality. After a careful survey of Saint Augustine's long drawn-out farewell to ancient myth and poetry, Cullhed examines other Late Antique dismissals as well as appropriations of the classical heritage. Thus, The Shadow of Creusa elucidates a cultural conflict which was to leave traces all through the Middle Ages and beyond 3 Macrobius: Narratio fabulosaThe Saturnalia; The Commentary on the Dream of Scipio; 4 Martianus Capella: A Hopeless Mess; Fabulous Festivities; Showy Fiction, Naked Learning; 5 Fulgentius: Mythographer and Mythoclast; A Surprise Visit; The Flirtatious Muse; Adorning Greece; 6 Boethius: The Maieutics of Consolation; Philosophy Sets the Tone; The Wings of Imagination; The Limits of Imagination; IV Poeta Christianus: From Ficta to Facta in Early Christian Poetry; Preliminary Remarks; 1 The Foam of Style; 2 Paulinus and Proba: "A Greater Order"; The Lyre of Nola; The Female Vates 3 Prudentius: Dreams and Demons4 Biblical Epic Poetry: The Orthodoxy of Paraphrase; Juvencus: The Pioneer; Sedulius: The Food of Poetry; Avitus: Non-Fiction; Arator: Documenta; V Epilogue: Ecclesia Triumphans.

    This book explores the contemporary crisis of biblical interpretation by examining modern and postmodern forms of the 'hermeneutics of suspicion'. Garrett Green looks at several thinkers who played key roles in creating a radically suspicious reading of the Bible. After Kant, Hamann and Feuerbach comes Nietzsche, who marked the turn from modern to postmodern suspicion. Green argues that similarities between Derrida's deconstruction and Barth's theology of signs show that postmodern suspicion ought not to be viewed simply as a threat to theology but as a secular counterpart to its own hermeneutical insights. When theology attends to its proper task of describing the grammar of scriptural imagination, it discovers a source of suspicion more radical than the secular, the hermeneutical expression of God's gracious judgement. Green concludes that Christians are committed to the hermeneutical imperative, the never-ending struggle for the meaning of scripture in the hopeful insecurity of the faithful imagination. Preface -- 1. Theological hermeneutics in the twilight of modernity -- -- Part I. The modern roots of suspicion -- 2. The scandal of positivity : the Kantian paradigm in modern theology -- 3. Against purism : Hamann's meta critique of Kant -- 4. Feuerbach : forgotten father of the hermeneutics of suspicion -- 5. Nietzschean suspicion and the Christian imagination -- -- Part II. Christian imagination in a postmodern world -- 6. The hermeneutics of difference : suspicion and faith in postmodern guise -- 7. The hermeneutic imperative : interpretation and the theological task -- 8. The faithful imagination : suspicion and trust in a postmodern world -- -- Appendix : Hamann's letter to Kraus -- Bibliography -- Index
