Main themes To meet these objectives, the course covers the following : - thorough reading of synoptic gospel texts with particular attention to the Passion and Resurrection texts; - comparative reading of the three synoptics in order to highlight the narrative art and the intentions (particularly theological) of each evangelist, without neglecting the pragmatic aspect of reading (relation between the text and the reader).
Aims By the end of that course, the student should be able to: - undertake a critical analysis of the synoptic gospels based on general knowledge of this literature; - set out the different theologies of each gospel; - take account of the pragmatic aspect of reading (relation between the text and the reader).
