Full Description


Building on the interest and success of God Is Rice, When the Bamboo Bends is a visual and thought-provoking exploration of spirituality in the Eastern Christian tradition. Throughout the world Christian ideas and worship are expressed through local culture. In the East, and in Japan in particular, bamboo is a key cultural symbol. Its characteristics -- shape, flexibility, eternally green leaves and hollow stem -- are interpreted in the light of their religious significance. The objective of this book is to stimulate ideas of the relationship between Christ and culture throughout the world.NER(01): GB IE
