Character Studies and the Gospel of Mark Summary

Character Studies and the Gospel of Mark by Professor Matthew Ryan Hauge (Azusa Pacific University, USA)

Characters in the Second Gospel are analysed and an in-depth look at different approaches currently employed by scholars working with literary and reader-oriented methods of analysis is provided. The first section consists of essays on method/theory, and the second consists of seven exegetical character studies using a literary or reader-oriented method. All contributors work from a literary, narrative-critical, reader-oriented, or related methodology. The book summarizes the state of the discussion and examines obstacles to arriving at a comprehensive theory of character in the Second Gospel. Specific contributions include analyses of the representation of women, God, Jesus, Satan, Gentiles, and the Roman authorities of Mark's Gospel. This work is both an exploration of theories of character, and a study in the application of those theories.

Character Studies and the Gospel of Mark Reviews

Christopher W. Skinner and Matthew Ryan Hauge (eds.) have assembled a stellar group of scholars who know (more narrowly) the field of Markan characterization and (more broadly) the field of narrative criticism and because they push forward these disciplines in creative ways. -- D. Keith Campbell, Global Scholars, USA * Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society *
