{"product_id":"the-bible-onscreen-in-the-wickham-clayton-9781526136572","title":"The Bible Onscreen in the New Millennium: New Heart and New Spirit","description":"The remarkable commercial success of Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ in 2004 came as a surprise to the Hollywood establishment, particularly considering the film's failure to find production funding through a major studio. Since then the Biblical epic, long thought dead in terms of mainstream marketability, has become a viable product. This collection examines the new wave of the genre, which includes such varied examples as Darren Aronofsky's Noah (2014) and Ridley Scott's Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014), along with the telenovelas of Latin America. Such texts follow previous traditions while appearing distinct both stylistically and thematically from the Biblical epic in its prime, making academic consideration timely and relevant. Featuring contributions from such scholars as Mikel J. Koven, Andrew B. R. Elliott and Martin Stollery, and a preface from Adele Reinhartz, the book will be of interest to students and scholars of film, television and religion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wickham Clayton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526136570\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526136572\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 1.00d","brand":"Wickham Clayton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46052255695103,"sku":"9781526136572","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_52fabe95-c4d6-4e75-8d11-67933ea9a71f.jpg?v=1723555791","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-bible-onscreen-in-the-wickham-clayton-9781526136572","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
