Lear, Sheree: Scribal Composition

Malachi as a Test Case. The Hebrew Bible is the product of scribes. Whether copying, editing, conflating, adapting, or authoring, these ancient professionals were responsible for the various text designs, constructions and text-types that we have today. Sheree Lear seeks to investigate the many practices employed by ancient scribes in literary production, or, more aptly, scribal composition. Using Malachi as a test-case, three autonomous yet complementary chapters will illustrate how investigating the text as the product of scribal composition can yield new and important insights. 177 Seiten, gebunden (Forschungen zur Religion und Literatur des Alten und Neuen Testaments; Vol. 270/Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2018) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
