Notes
Litwa reads the Gospels as ancient historiography that borrows the conventions of Mediterranean myth -- a position Hill's Who Chose the Gospels? and Bauckham's work, both held here, are written against. Published in Yale's Synkrisis series; no other volume of it is here, so it is recorded in this note rather than as a series. No chapter list is published; it awaits a photograph.
