Stephen D. Moore and Yvonne Sherwood craft a wide-ranging account of the history of biblical scholarship and compelling reasons for a metacritical reflection on the discipline through an authentic engagement with poststructuralism. This is a text that's witty and erudite but not short and to the point. Moore and Sherwood ping-pong to a variety of issues in biblical scholarship, and their reliance on a comparison with literary studies really assumes too much of the reader's academic background to make this a helpful text for a layperson.… (mais)

This is in fact an integrated collection of eight essays by noted scholars. After an introductory essay, the following seven chapters introduce a variety of methodologies for biblical studies. Each essay begins with a general introduction to the presupositions and methodologies of their particular area of interest, and then goes on to apply this more specifically to the Gospel of Mark, usually by analysing a particular section.

A very useful book for any introduction to the study of Mark's Gospel, or to biblical criticism in general.
