Jeremiah (Dis)Placed: New Directions in Writing/Reading Jeremiah: The Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies

Editat de Assistant Professor A.R. Pete Diamond, Professor Louis Stulman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 apr 2011
Jeremiah (Dis)Placed collects the best of the papers and responses presented to the 2007 and 2008 sessions of the Writing/Reading Jeremiah Group (SBL) offering an assessment of new interpretative directions in current Jeremiah Studies.

The Writing/Reading Jeremiah group was re-launched at the 2007 annual meeting of the SBL. Its purpose is to invite new readings and constructions of meaning with the book of Jeremiah "this side" of historicist paradigms and postmodernism. The group welcomes all strategies of reading Jeremiah that seek to reconfigure, redeploy, and move beyond conventional readings of Jeremiah. Their manifesto: not by compositional history alone, nor biographical portrayal alone, nor their accompanying theological superstructures; rather, we seek interpretation from new spaces opened for reading Jeremiah by the postmodern turn.

Recenzii

This book is well-edited and well-proofed. No doubt this collection will affect future research made on the book of Jeremiah in many ways.
This would be an excellent textbook from which to set readings for students, for the essays are conducive both for generating discussion and, potentially, for widening the horizons of thought... This book is a valuable addition to the library shelves.
