Abstract

Samaria: Focal space of interest in Luke-Acts. The aim of this article is to investigate the importance of the place Samaria in Luke-Acts. The method of investigaion consists of a combination of historical critical exegesis with narraive criticism. The histoical citical focus is on the so-called Antiochean source used by the author of Acts to indicate the importance of Samaia in the missionary activity of the early church. The narratological perspective focuses on the way in which Samaia as 'focal space' contibutes to constituting the plot of Luke-Acts as a tragic narraive.
