| Summary: | Mary Ann Beavis holds a PhD from the University of Cambridge. She is a Professor of Religion and Culture at St. Thomas More College, University of Saskatchewan. From the onset, Beavis employs literal-redaction strategy as her critical methodology to the study of Mark. This approach involves narrative, rhetorical and reader's response strategies to the study of the biblical text. Mary Beavis, while working on the fundamental presuppositions of narrative criticism and post structuralism, shows how the Markan text shapes theological convictions and moral habits of the community of believers and comments on the final canonical form of the text. In order to work within the framework of rhetorical and narratological methodology, the author divides each section into 1. Introductory matters; 2. Tracing the narrative flow and; 3. Theological issues. For want of space and since the book is a commentary, this review will concentrate on the major theological issues of each section. |
