Keith W. Whitelam - Revealing the History of Ancient Palestine. Changing Perspectives 8 (Copenhagen International Seminar) [Retail].pdf

(2932 KB) Pobierz
As an authoritative survey of trends in scholarship over recent decades, this
volume should appeal to those seeking a critical and objective approach to modern
engagement with ancient texts. Whitelam’s work offers a refreshing counterbalance
to pervasive maximalist views on the origin, reception, and ongoing social
function of biblical text. The insightful essays contained in this volume represent
a perspective on the past built on sound evidence and methodological rigour.

Revealing the History of Ancient
Palestine
This volume is part of the
Changing Perspectives
sub-series, which is constituted
by anthologies of articles by world-renowned biblical scholars and historians
that have made an impact on the field and changed its course during the last
decades. This volume offers a collection of seminal essays by Keith W. Whitelam
on the early history of ancient Palestine and the origins and emergence of Israel.
Collected together in one volume for the first time, and featuring one unpublished
article, this volume will be of interest to biblical and ancient Near Eastern scholars
interested in the politics of historical representation but also on critical ways of
constructing the history of ancient Palestine.
