Well, I can't claim any personal acquaintance with KŠsemann, although I
guess he was at TŸbingen at the time I was in Munich, where I heard Romano
Guardini instead. However, I've always associated KŠsemann with the dictum
on Mark's gospel as "a Passion Narrative with a long introduction"--a
perspective which has certainly profoundly influenced my decades-long
fascination and thinking on Mark. Is that attribution correct, or was it
someone else and earlier, who enunciated that notion?
