BOOK



It is widely accepted by New Testament scholars that the Gospel

of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles probably originated as two

parts of one work by a single author. In spite of this, the books

have been assigned to very different genres: Luke is

traditionally viewed as a biography of Jesus, and Acts as a

history of the early church. Comparing in detail the structure

and content of Acts with the formal features of history, novel

epic and biography, Sean Adams challenges this division. Applying

both ancient and modern genre theory, he argues that the best

genre parallel for the Acts of the Apostles is in fact collected

biography. Offering a nuanced and sophisticated understanding of

genre theory, along with an insightful argument regarding the

composition and purpose of Acts, this book will be of interest to

those studying the New Testament, Acts, genre theory and ancient

literature
