Résumé

Oral Tradition and the Formation of Gospel Narratives by George Bale offers a comprehensive and scholarly exploration of how the life, teachings, and legacy of Jesus Christ were preserved and transmitted through oral culture before being codified in the written Gospels. Tracing the rich interplay between Jewish and Hellenistic oral traditions, the book delves into key theories of oral transmission, performance, and memory that shaped the early Christian proclamation.
From the pioneering work of form critics to modern critiques and the vital role of eyewitness testimony, Bale illuminates the dynamic processes through which fragmented sayings, parables, and miracle stories coalesced into coherent narrative works. With careful historical context and detailed analysis, this volume reveals the Gospels as living documents born from vibrant oral performances-faithful yet adaptable reflections of communal memory and theological intent.
Essential reading for scholars, students, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the origins and enduring power of the Gospel narratives.
