Sinopse

This monograph (72 pages, hardback, 978-0-9526192-6-0) analyses Mark?s portrayal of exorcism from a political perspective. It argues the case that Mark saw in Jesus? exorcisms a symbolic demonstration of the cleansing of the people. Thus it is argued that the Marcan Jesus did not subscribe to the cosmological dualism of his day, rather Mark used this language to represent the spiritual and political state of the people.
