| Σύνοψη: | The Gospel is taken here as a model of the type of personal knowing and witness that gives its peculiar status to knowledge in the humanities. The Gospel according to Matthew is viewed in comparison with the other canonical Gospels in order to bring out its peculiar slant, particularly the way it reads Jesus’s life retrospectively in the light of Easter. This is especially apt for bringing out the way that the Gospel story is made to serve as a narrative illustration of what is known theologically through faith in Christ as experienced in worship and liturgy. The question of literary genre as raised by the Gospel threatens to crack the system of genres and force an acknowledgment of the uncanny type of knowledge that the humanities entail. |
