Honor Y Verguenza/ Honor And Shame Lectura Cultural Del Evangelio De Mateo/ a Cultural Reading of the Gospel of Matthew

In antiquity honor and shame are two key values in public relationships and in the overall functioning of society. This work offers an exhaustive explanation of the meaning that praise and recrimination have for Matthew the evangelist and his Christian addressees. Professor Neyrey focuses on the analysis of the traditional genre, where honor and shame appear. His study, based on the knowledge of ancient rhetoric, is completed with trans-cultural studies from other countries surrounding the Mediterranean basin. It also includes some original aspects in order to get a different grasp of Matthew's Gospel.Neyrey, Jerome H. is the author of 'Honor Y Verguenza/ Honor And Shame Lectura Cultural Del Evangelio De Mateo/ a Cultural Reading of the Gospel of Matthew', published 2006 under ISBN 9788430115501 and ISBN 8430115501.
