Mack, Burton L.

A Myth of Innocence Mark and Christian Origins Burton L. Mack - U.S.A. Fortress Press 1973 - 432tr. paperback, illustrations 23cm

This imaginative book is not just a study of the Gospel of Mark, but of primitive Christianity in all its variegated forms, for which it represents a new paradigm ... It deserves serious reflection and discussion at several levels, in a variety of contexts, by quite diversified discussion partners? This is an epic-making work because it turns scholarship on its head. Mack asks questions not about origins but about social meaning.
