The work of Rene Girard has had far-reaching influences on a host of academic fields from literary criticism, sociology and philosophy to biblical hermeneutics and theology. This illuminating study examines a number of Girard's key ideas- from 'mimesis' or learning through imitation, to the creation of scapegoats and treatment of victims- and teases out biblical reflections and insights for everyday pastoral work.
