| Résumé: | Honour and shame are two of the key concepts identified by cultural anthropologists for understanding the Mediterranean personality in traditional societies today. Honour and shame are also important concepts for interpreting the New Testament. These facts raise an important methodological issue, namely that of relating modern anthropological studies to the Bible. This article critiques the method of structural functionalism on which the great majority of studies of honour and shame in the New Testament have been based, and suggests an alternative approach, that of the conflict model. |
