Description

The history of Biblical literary criticism has been relatively short, scholars having felt required to read the Bible as transparent of history. Recent greater willingness to consider the human texture of revelation has opened the door to consider the Bible as a piece of literature. Examine the text in a new light. This title, The Bible, part of Chelsea House Publishers’ Modern Critical Views series, examines the major works of The Bible through full-length critical essays by expert literary critics. In addition, this title features a short biography on The Bible, a chronology of the author’s life, and an introductory essay written by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University.
