The Art of Myth Making (The Gospel According to Mark) S2:E12

In this episode we look into the structure of writing a myth, how characters were invented, scenes created and why. We then take a close look at the first Christian Gospel assigned the name, "Mark" who writes in the late 70's to see how he employs some of these structures in his narrative about Jesus. But will also look at this author's writing style and the brilliance behind it. Multiple layers with several double meanings, many literal, some philosophical and others just mythical. (Ref.
