Irony in Mark's Gospel

Begins with an exploration of the social functions of narrative in general, and of ironic narrative in particular. The author of this interdisciplinary study of "Mark's Gospel" believes that - when applied to Gospel texts - sociological analysis and literary criticism may be far closer together in purpose and intent than is often supposed.
