I have read this twice through now and intend to reread it as often as it takes to assimilate the world shattering insight of this work. It concerns contagious violence resulting from (mimetic) desire and its overthrow by the revelation of the crucifixion of a victim later acknowledged as wholly or innocent. The Satanic attempt to recruit crowds against a single victim is laid bare and hence defeated. Don’t be put off thinking this is supernatural theology. It is a brilliantly explained theory of mankind. It’s the book I would take to a desert island along with the Bible & Shakespeare. Highly recommended.

Eye opening. Wouldn’t be exaggerating to say reading this totally changed my view of human beings, spirituality and religion.

Fascinating

Girard shows how the single victim mechanism and founding murder, previously at the heart of human civilisation, is exposed and reversed by Christ’s teachings and most of all in his Passion. Girard’s
anthropological exposition of what was accomplished on the Cross will leave both believers and non-believers utterly dumbfounded.

Devastatingly brilliant

The foreword was a great conclusion, ironically. How the scapegoat mechanism only partially manifests in the modern world. Debt the first 5000 years brings mimetic theory into economics, another way of understanding the dynamic equilibrium we find ourselves in

The key insight or set of insights in this book are so profound and deep that they can radically change the way you look at the world.

The performance is fairly flat, but the fact of the narrator’s relation to the author seemed important to me, so I decided that was more important than a ‘performance’.

I hope Girard’s work is picked up with greater momentum in the coming years as I genuinely believe it’s like a key to unlocking both a wildly important theological door and a civilisational one.
