dc.description.abstract | During the course of the previous century, authors from various
genres attempted to clear the name of Judas Iscariot, or
alternatively, tried to explain why he betrayed Jesus Christ. One
of the most ambitious attempts at this was that of the wellknown
British-American author Taylor Caldwell in her book
called „I, Judas‟ (1977). The strategy supporting Caldwell‟s partial
exculpation of Judas is analysed against the background of
various early descriptions of Judas. The conclusion is that Caldwell‟
s excessively fertile literary imagination, combined with the
encroachment of postbible traditions in this apparent first-person
narrative of the accused disciple undermines the credibility
of her alternative perception of Judas | en_US |
