Resumen de Marcion and the Making of a Heretic. God and Scripture in the Second Century by Judith M. Lieu (review)
The comprehensiveness of Lieu's treatment gives this book much of its value, and it will be an indispensable point of reference for future scholarship.Lieu makes much of the fact that when Marcion's opponents present him as having an alternative canon consisting of his edited "gospel" and a set of Pauline letters, they judge him by later standards of what will constitute the Christian canon.Throughout this section of the book, Lieu emphasizes that when Marcion's critics contrast the fixity of their own gospel text with his editorial willingness to slice and dice, they betray themselves and should not persuade the modern scholar.
