Spanning a variety of disciplines, this 1995 enquiry focuses on one
particular Pauline characteristic: the apostle's habit of making
matters of faith the object of logical appraisal. A tracing of the
elliptical patterns of argument in Romans 1-8 illustrates this
habit and, at the same time, displays how Paul's vigorous
persistence in it seems often not to be matched by the solidity, or
at any rate the lucidity, of his logic. By viewing Paul against the
background of semiology, more especially the semiological theory of
Umberto Eco, new light is shed on the genesis of Paul's reasoning.
The discussion which ensues is marked by an interesting and
productive combination of modern linguistics and classical logic.
Moreover, the singular potential of today's techniques of 'fuzzy'
logical analysis for measuring the intellectual muscle of Paul's
argumentation is brought out dramatically by the uniqueness of his
semiological situation. His rationality takes on a new face.
