Description
Summary:Working with a combination of rhetorical criticism, speech act analysis and reception criticism, the strategies of alienation and re-identification in Galatians are investigated. The occurrence of these two interrelated strategies is traced through Galatians. Paul applies various kinds of 'vituperatio' to estrange his Galatian readers from his Galatian opponents. Likewise, he varies his devices to encourage the Christians of Galatia to re-identify with him. Praise (laudatio) is, however, used most sparingly.
