Description

To be had for the first time in one volume, a classic statement at the gospels within the spirit of liberation theology.

For many years, the peasants in Solentiname, a remote archipelago in Lake Nicaragua, gathered every Sunday to reflect at the gospel reading. From recordings of their dialogue, this ordinary document was once composed. First published within the 1970s in four volumes, it was once straight away acclaimed as a classic expression of liberation theology a radical reading of the Good News of Jesus from the standpoint of the poor and oppressed. (It was once also banned by the Somoza dictatorship.) Forty years later, now To be had in one volume, The Gospel in Solentiname retains its freshness and power. Regardless that times may have changed, the message of Jesus as heard by these peasants continues to challenge the rulers of our age, and to inspire the poor with the hope of a different world
