Description
Summary:This article focuses on the Lucan symbolic universe and ideology as it is reflected in his narration of the Jerusalem community in Acts 1:1-8:3. In this regard the author-narrator's literary strategies in communicating the 'correct' ideological information to his intended audience to make them aware of the contents of their lifeworld and how to legitimately participate in its various socio- religious processes, receive particular attention. Finally, in an effort to come to terms with the performative functions of Acts, a possible social scenario is constructed in which this text functioned originally.
