Narrative Identity of Jesus of Nazareth

The concept of narrative identity developed by Paul Ricoeur present the self-configuration that is defined by the narratives that are made about the person. This study seeks to understand the narrative identity of Jesus from the perception that the Gospel texts not simply tell the story of Jesus or have a doctrinal treatise about him, but tell stories about him. These stories articulate the elements of history, theology and literature and point to an identity defined from the idea of Messiah.
