Their Function in the Communication between the Text-Internal Author and the Text-Internal Reader
Description
This study identifies the questions that occur in Luke 1:5–2:52, and then discusses their function in the communication between the text-internal author and the text-internal reader. It does so by applying the Communication-Oriented Method for the first time to this text-unit. It concludes that these questions function at the level of the characters as a communication ‘motor’, with the objective of prolonging the communication between the characters. At the level of the text-internal author and the text-internal reader, they function as a narrative ‘motor’, driving the text-internal author’s narrative by setting further action (and communication) in motion.
