The Life Of Jesus : Gerhard Haderer 2002


This is the forbidden Comic Book , " THE LIFE OF JESUS " released by GERHARD HADERER .

" Das Leben des Jesus " 2002.

Gerhard Haderer was born in 1951 in Leonding, in upper Austria.
He studied at a technical art school in Linz for four years from 1965, and then studied (draughtsmanship/engraving?) in Stockholm.
He returned to Austria in 1971 and worked as an independent commercial artist and draughtsman.

His book " Das Leben des Jesus " (The Life of Jesus) , a satire in which Jesus is portrayed as an incense-addicted hippy , sniffing incense , caused international controversy .
When it was published in 2002 it was violently attacked in Austria.

The Catholic Church in Austria including the Archbishop of Vienna denounced the work as blasphemous .
The Bishop of Salzburg demanded a jail term for the caricaturist for violating the blasphemy paragraph in the Austrian penal code, and Catholic schools in Austria boycotted the publishing house.

When it was published in Greece in 2005, it was banned for blasphemy, Haderer faced extradition and a suspended six-month jail sentence in absentia.

  1. οκ, το κομικ ειναι ψιλοχαζο και βαρετό. πάντως κι εγώ το είχα αγοράσει όταν βγήκε, από αντίδραση και μόνο στις μπούρδες που ακούγονταν ακόμη και στην τηλεόραση.
    Υπήρξα θύμα της διαφήμισης που του είχε γίνει, γιατί αν δεν είχε γίνει τόσος ντόρος... ούτε η μάνα του δεν θα το αγόραζε.

  2. Συμφωνώ ! Τα κείμενα είναι λίγο πολύ ηλίθια . Εγώ απλά το ανέβασα δίχως να κάνω κριτική .
