Silence is considered by many Japanese and Western literary critics to be his masterpiece. Approaching Silence is both a celebration of this award-winning novel as well as a significant contribution to the growing body of work on literature and religion. It features eminent scholars writing from Christian, Buddhist, literary, and historical perspectives, taking up, for example, the uneasy alliance between faith and doubt; the complexities of discipleship and martyrdom; the face of Christ; and, the bodhisattva ideal as well as the nature of suffering. It also frames Silence through a wider lens, comparing it to Endo's other works as well as to the fiction of other authors. Approaching Silence promises to deepen academic appreciation for Endo, within and beyond the West"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 403-411) and index. 505 00 $t Afterword / $r Martin Scorsese. $g 16. $t Background and Reception: $g 1. $t Before Silence: Stumbling Along with Rodrigues and Kichijiro / $r Kevin M.
