Joseph Ernest Renan 28 February 1823 - 2 October 1892 was a French expert of Semitic languages and civilizations philology philosopher historian and writer devoted to his native province of Brittany. He is best known for his influential historical works on early Christianity and his political theories especially concerning nationalism and national identity. Renan is credited as being among the first scholars to advance the Khazar theory which held that Ashkenazi Jews were descendants of Turkic peoples who had adopted Jewish religion and migrated to Western Europe following the collapse of their khanate. Within his lifetime Renan was best known as the author of the enormously popular Life of Jesus Vie de Jésus 1863. Renan attributed the idea of the book to his sister Henriette with whom he was traveling in Ottoman Syria and Palestine when struck with a fever she died suddenly. With only a New Testament and copy of Josephus as references he began writing. The book was first translated into English in the year of its publication by Charles E. Wilbour and has remained in print for the past 145 years. Renan's Life of Jesus was lavished with ironic praise and criticism by Albert Schweitzer in his book The Quest of the Historical Jesus. Renan claimed Jesus was able to purify himself of Jewish traits and that Jesus became an Aryan his Life of Jesus promoted racial ideas and infused race into theology and the person of Jesus he depicted Jesus as a Galilean who was transformed from a Jew into a Christian and that Christianity emerged purified of any Jewish influences.
