Mark and Luke in Poststructuralist Perspectives: Jesus Begins to Write

By Stephen D. Moore

Book Overview

In this book Stephen D. Moore offers a dazzling new reading of the Gospels of Mark and Luke, applying the poststructuralist techniques of Derrida, Lacan, and Foucault to illuminate these texts in a way that no one has done before. Writing with wit and a great sensitivity to words and to wordplay, Moore approaches the Gospels of Mark and Luke as though they were pictograms or dreamwork to decipher and interpret, writing a response that is no less visceral and immediate than the biblical texts themselves.
