FROM HEGEL TO SARAMAGO: LITERARY GOSPELS

Abstract

"From Hegel to Saramago: Literary Gospels" is a comparative retrospective of modern "apocryphal" fiction about the life of Christ.
It shows that in line with the cultural innovations resulting from the Enlightenment, the historiographical approach to the desacralization of Christ was established in the world literature of the nineteenth century, while at the turn of the twentieth and even more so the picture changed dramatically. The presented picture presents a rich base for future research and
at the same time it is advisable to function as an auxiliary literature in certain study programs
