The story of Mark is one of trauma and loss, but also one of healing and provisional selfhood. These themes reoccur time and time again throughout modern-day films, sculptures, graphic novels, and electronic media. By examining these contemporary interpretations of this particular early Christian gospel, this book breaks new ground in ways of understanding traditional religious texts. The authors use the Gospel of Mark as a resource enabling traumatized persons or groups to resist capitulation and restore at least partial identity, and do so in a way that avoids traditional theological or dogmatic assumptions. While not claiming the Gospel of Mark as the definitive or complete answer to experiences of pain and loss, this book models new ways of reading it for coping and healing.
