I will be bold enough to recommend my new book, which is listed below my
signature. It appears in the Interfaces series and is a narrative-critical
and psychological treatment of Mark 5:1-20 in a format suitable for
undergraduates in introductory biblical studies courses.

Dear Colleagues, In 1982, I published Mark's gospel, A History of its 
Interpretation (Paulist Press) which was the first history of Mark's 
Gospel. On the advice of a number of friends I am intending to revise it 
and bring it up to date. I would be extremely grateful for any suggestions 
sources etc. Your's very sincerely, Sean P. Kealy C.S.Sp., Duquesne 
University, Pittsburgh PA 15282

Hi Dr. Kealy -- I made use of your 1982 book 2 or 3 years ago when I was 
writing a paper for a class on Mark's gospel -- I found it extremely 
useful and I would like to encourage you in your work on the new 
edition.  We should tremble before we make recommendations to you -- who 
knows more about Mark than Dr. Kealy? And someone more knowledgeable 
than I will have a more comprehensive list, but I would say that the 
following items are at least worth your attention:

Author:        Black, C. Clifton.
Title:        Does Suffering Possess Educational Value in Mark's Gospel?
Journal:        Perspectives in Religious Studies
Year:        2001,
Volume:        28(1):
Page:        85-98.
Description:        Charles Talbert's book Learning through Suffering 
investigated how
        suffering is viewed as educational in several NT writings, in a
        way parallel to views in the Hellenistic world and some Jewish
        writings. Sharyn Dowd in Prayer, Power, and the Problem of
        Suffering describes the tension between the suffering of Jesus and
        the power of God who does not remove the suffering. Susan
        Garrett's book, The Temptations of Jesus in Mark's Gospel,
        emphasizes the theme of testing. In Mark, the stories of suffering
        highlight the need for faith, which suffering, like that of Jesus,
        can be redeemed only by God. The appropriate response to suffering
        is faith manifested by prayer. In Mark, suffering does not seem to
        be imposed by God to provide educational value, but in suffering
        one does learn, particularly at the cross, that Jesus is God's
        Son, and what prayer and faith are. In that sense suffering is
        epistemic.


Author:        Danove, Paul.
Title:        The Narrative Function of Mark's Characterization of God.
Journal:        Novum Testamentum
Year:        2001,
Volume:        43(1):
Page:        12-30.
Description:        199 explicit and grammatically required implicit 
references to God
        in Mark are identified and categorized. The six general semantic
        relationships are agent, experiencer, source, goal, benefactor, or
        patient. The characterization of God closely relates Jesus to God
        establishing the credentials of Jesus that encourages the reader's
        identification with Jesus. Other characters in Mark are either
        aligned or opposed to Jesus thus exposing their relationship with
        God and providing criteria for evaluating their actions.


AND, a local favorite:

Author:        Tannehill, Robert C.
Title:        THE DISCIPLES IN MARK: THE FUNCTION OF A NARRATIVE ROLE.
Journal:        J of Religion
Year:        1977
Volume:        57(4)
Page:        386 - 405
Description:        Following the suggestion of Perrin, attempts to use 
a general
        literary criticism in looking at Mark. Stress on narrative
        composition and on an understanding of how stories are told and
        how they communicate are involved. The writer of Mark uses the
        disciples' role to mirror his purposes and creates a dialogue
        between himself and the reader by revealing a knowledge of the
        reader's situation and needs.
