Characters and characterization in the Gospel of John

This volume explores different approaches to understanding Johannine characters and characterization through methodological and exegetical studies of specific characters in the Fourth Gospel. Divided into two sections, the book first considers method and theory, before providing exegetical character studies using a literary or reader-oriented method. It summarizes the state of the discussion, examines obstacles to arriving at a comprehensive theory of character in the Fourth Gospel, compares different approaches, and compiles the diverse methodologies into one comparative study. This volume is both a comprehensive study in narrative/reader-oriented theories, and a study in the application of those theories to characterization in the complex literary work that is the Gospel of John. -- Book Cover.
