1. 1. Story As History, History As Story

   The Gospel Tradition in the Context of Ancient Oral History

   

   This study situates the Gospel tradition within Greco-Roman oral historiography, arguing that early Christian storytellers functioned as historians who collected and shaped eyewitness testimony. It critiques form-critical assumptions by foregrounding autopsy, informants, memory, and performance as key dynamics in the transmission from oral reports to written narratives. The result is a nuanced model showing how story and history interpenetrate, yielding narratively crafted yet historically responsible portrayals of Jesus and the early movement.
