Jesus and the Word, by Rudolf Bultmann
    Despite the famous opening line of his "Theology of the New Testament," Bultmann was not
dismissive of the historical aspects of understanding Jesus. Here is his study of Jesus' life and words, of course through Bultmann's demythologizing lens.
 

Jesus, by Martin Dibelius
In this book, pubished in English in 1949, Dibelius insists that although the Bible is shaped by settings in which it was written, it nonetheless testifies to an historical event. Here, 
Dibelius attempts to reconstruct the life and teachings of Jesus.

The Apostolic Preaching and Its Development, by C. H. Dodd

and John.
 

Salvation by Trust? Reading the Bible Faithfully, by Richard B. Hays

own perspectives.

the Westar Institute, the parent organization of the Jesus Seminar.

Taking the Bible Seriously, by Leander E. Keck

draw those two poles back together.
 

God's Way of Acting, by N. T. Wright

for keeping historical judgment on these events open.
 

Resurrection Faith: N.T. Wright Talks About History and Belief
        Wright argues that the gospel writers were describing events which they believed had
actually happened in the world of time and space; if they did not "really" happen, then Wright
says he has better things to do with his life. First published in The Christian Century, Dec 18-31, 2002.

The Use of the Bible in Theology, by John Howard Yoder
    A chapter in the 1984 book The Use of the Bible in Theology: Evangelical Options,
