Summary
What does it mean to read the gospels 'before the book'? For centuries, the way people have talked about the gospels has been shaped by ideas that have more to do with the printing press and modern notions of the author than they do with ancient writing and reading practices. 'Gospels Before the Book' challenges several subtle yet problematic assumptions about authors, books, and publication at work in early Christian studies.
