A thorough analysis of Greco-Roman contemporary historiography reveals a clear set of essential conventions defining the genre. These conventions establish the reader's expectations of the text, creating boundaries that both guide and limit possible interpretations. Further, innovation within and sometimes across these boundaries have shaped conventions and thus the genre over time. Assessing such innovations within a text helps the reader identify lines of influence between historians, figuratively building a family tree of contemporary historiography in which literary relationships help further define the reader's expectations of the text. Properly locating a historical narrative within that family tree respects the historical and literary context of the text and enables the reader to develop a hermeneutic that reflects the unique text and context of the narrative.

520 $a Applying the same process to the book of Acts demonstrates not only its most appropriate location within the family of contemporary historiography but also indicates the conventions and innovations guiding its composition. Assessing how both these conventions and influences function within the text illuminates the boundaries placed by the text on possible interpretations, which in turn suggests profitable avenues for developing a robust hermeneutic that is uniquely suited to Acts.
