Reading Ecclesiastes : A Literary and Cultural Exegesis, Hardback Book

Reading Ecclesiastes : A Literary and Cultural Exegesis Hardback

Part of the Heythrop Studies in Contemporary Philosophy, Religion and Theology series

Hardback

Description

Reading Ecclesiastes explores the literary style and themes of the Book of Ecclesiastes, investigating its overall theological messages and the cultural perspectives which readers bring to bear on their act of reading. Examining the meaning found in Ecclesiastes through the use of two important contemporary reading methods - narrative criticism and cultural exegesis - Mary E.

Mills breaks new ground. Highlighting the range of theological meaning attached to the book of Ecclesiastes as a result of treating the text as a form of narrative and a story told in the first person, this innovative book will appeal to all those interested in narrative criticism, literary studies and interpretation and Wisdom tradition and the ancient world more widely, as well as biblical scholars.
