Reading the Acts of the Apostles is still essential to our
knowledge of the beginnings of Christianity. The question is how
credible Luke's historical account is from today's perspective.
Daniel Marguerat's commentary wants to overcome the alternative
between historical credibility and narrative fiction. To this end,
he innovatively combines historical criticism and narrative
analysis. On the one hand, he examines Luke's narrative art in
order to grasp his interpretation of the events. The comparison
with the Graeco-Roman historians makes it possible to recognize the
rules of composition used. On the other hand, Marguerat looks for
the possible traditions that Luke used. This methodological
approach allows a new perspective on the work of Luke as the "first
Christian historian". This commentary was originally written in
French and is now available in German for the first time.
