Hi scholars,

Following the recent thread on the Gospel of Mark, I feel very tempted to 
share with the list what I've got and hope that it is of value and interest.

I have some of my own stuff on the Gospel of Mark to contribute in terms of 
the the function of the historic presents in Mark as part of the 
discouse-structuring devices that are present in the text. I have written a 
thesis on this for a Th.M course and do feel that I have found something 
significant about Mark, including the interpretative significance of it on 
the Markan text as a whole. As I am not of the calibre as many of you in 
terms of the knowlege of Greek and biblical interpretation, I am generally 
hesitant to make the proposal of my interpretation of the function of 
historic present and my interpretation of Mark, which I believe has yet to 
be proposed by scholars as a whole; though I see bits and pieces of some 
similar viewpoints in commentaries. Even so, I do greatly hope that my ideas 
can be assessed by the scholarship to see whether they are of any worth. I 
would greatly appreciate it if anyone could give some serious thought to 
what I have. I have the thesis in soft copy form and do not know whether I 
can post it to the list to anyone who is genuinely interested in reading and 
critiquing it.
