The modern conception of sacrifice is at once cast as a victory of self-discipline over desire and condescended to as destructive and archaic abnegation. But even in the Old Testament, the dual natures of sacrifice, embodying both ritual slaughter and moral rectitude, were at odds. In this analysis, Terry Eagleton makes a compelling argument that the idea of sacrifice has long been misunderstood. Pursuing the complex lineage of sacrifice in a lyrical discourse, Eagleton focuses on the Old and New Testaments, offering a virtuosic analysis of the crucifixion.

Eagleton's etiology of the concept of sacrifice is masterful -- several times per chapter I found myself being struck by the depth of his analysis. The only criticism I have is slight and has to do with the narrator; his narration is dynamic and engaging but I couldn't help being distracted by his mispronunciations of several important names/terms. Still, it's a thought-provoking listen and the mispronunciations on the part of the narrator are made up for by the otherwise high quality of his reading.
