جزییات کتاب
This volume is designed as a resource for using rhetorical criticism as a methodology for interpreting the Bible. Rhetorical criticism is treated in the broader context of the growing interest in the study of the literary character of the Bible. The volume is divided into two parts to accommodate both the Old and New Testaments. Each part begins with a discussion of the history and methodology of rhetorical criticism pertinent to that Testament. Special emphasis is given to the current state and trends of the discipline and its impact on biblical interpretation. These discussions are followed by extensive bibliographies categorized to facilitate working with the published research on specific biblical texts, books or categories of books. This volume should be of interest to biblical scholars, especially those interested in rhetorical criticism and literary approaches to the Bible; classicists; those interested in the discipline of rhetoric; and academic libraries for reference collections.
