| Summary |
Christina Harker untersucht in dieser Studie die vorherrschende Meinung, dass das Neue Testament anti-imperial sei, indem sie die Forschung zum Neuen Testament sowie di Erfahrungen der Galater innerhalb imperialer Diskurse, die die Auflösung der konventionellen Kolonialreiche im 20. Jahrhundert überdauerten, verortet. |
