Book New Studies in Textual Interplay

Download or read book New Studies in Textual Interplay written by B. J. Oropeza and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume features a body of work selected by Craig A. Evans, B. J. Oropeza, and Paul T. Sloan, designed to examine just what is meant by “intertextuality,” including metalepsis and the controversial and exciting approach known as “mimesis.” Beginning with an introduction from Oropeza that orients readers in a complex and evolving field, the contributors first establish the growing research surrounding the discipline before examining important texts and themes in the New Testament Gospels and epistles. Throughout, these essays critically evaluate new proposals relating to intertextuality and the function of ancient Scripture in the writings that eventually came to comprise the New Testament. With points of analysis ranging from multidimensional recontextualization and ancient Midrash in the age of intertextuality to Luke's Christology and multivalent biblical images, this volume amasses cutting-edge research on intertexuality and biblical exegesis.

Book Practicing Intertextuality

Download or read book Practicing Intertextuality written by Max J. Lee and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-29 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practicing Intertextuality attempts something bold and ambitious: to map both the interactions and intertextual techniques used by New Testament authors as they engaged the Old Testament and the discourses of their fellow Jewish and Greco-Roman contemporaries. This collection of essays functions collectively as a handbook describing the relationship between ancient authors, their texts, and audience capacity to detect allusions and echoes. Aimed for biblical studies majors, graduate and seminary students, and academics, the book catalogues how New Testament authors used the very process of interacting with their Scriptures (that is, the Masoretic Text, the Septuagint, and their variants) and the texts of their immediate environment (including popular literary works, treatises, rhetorical handbooks, papyri, inscriptions, artifacts, and graffiti) for the very production of their message. Each chapter demonstrates a type of interaction (that is, doctrinal reformulations, common ancient ethical and religious usage, refutation, irenic appropriation, and competitive appropriation), describes the intertextual technique(s) employed by the ancient author, and explains how these were practiced in Jewish, Greco-Roman, or early Christian circles. Seventeen scholars, each an expert in their respective fields, have contributed studies which illuminate the biblical interpretation of the Gospels, the Pauline letters, and General Epistles through the process of intertextuality.

Book The Palgrave Handbook of Affect Studies and Textual Criticism

Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Affect Studies and Textual Criticism written by Donald R. Wehrs and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a comprehensive account of how scholarship on affect and scholarship on texts have come to inform one another over the past few decades. The result has been that explorations of how texts address, elicit, shape, and dramatize affect have become central to contemporary work in literary, film, and art criticism, as well as in critical theory, rhetoric, performance studies, and aesthetics. Guiding readers to the variety of topics, themes, interdisciplinary dialogues, and sub-disciplinary specialties that the study of interplay between affect and texts has either inaugurated or revitalized, the handbook showcases and engages the diversity of scholarly topics, approaches, and projects that thinking of affect in relation to texts and related media open up or enable. These include (but are not limited to) investigations of what attention to affect brings to established methods of studying texts—in terms of period, genre, cultural contexts, rhetoric, and individual authorship.

Book Interplay

Download or read book Interplay written by James F. McDonald and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Interplay: Communication, Memory, and Media in the United States, James F. Mc Donald creates a multilayered work of contemporary cultural studies. Ostensibly a cultural/historical examination of the United States, McDonald presents his theses through an unusual metaphorical framework combining creativity and scientific rigor. The US then becomes the context for a larger effort to combine Anglo-American cultural studies methodology with Continental theories rooted in rationalistic academic traditions. Interplay is therefore text of considerable scientific value presented in an eminently readable form, certain to have broad appeal among casual readers, students of culture an anyone wishing to gain a nuanced understanding of US culture.

Book The Interplay of the Oral and the Written in Chinese Popular Literature

Download or read book The Interplay of the Oral and the Written in Chinese Popular Literature written by Vibeke Børdahl and published by Nordic Institute of Asian Studies. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the interrelationship between oral (or performing) and written traditions in Chinese popular literature is an issue that concerns practically everybody who reads or teaches Chinese literature, surprisingly it has never been properly treated in a scholarly forum before. For that reason alone, this volume is especially important and deserves serious consideration from scholars and students in the field.With subjects ranging from Ming vernacular fiction to popular prints and contemporary storytelling and folk ballads, this volume examines the interplay of oral and written traditions in China from interdisciplinary perspectives. Literary criticism, linguistic analysis, fieldwork, folklore studies, and the exploration of visual sources all bring out vital perspectives on central questions. Exploring the traditions of professional storytelling and popular entertainment literature in China, they offer enquiries into new material and give astonishing responses to old controversies. In going beyond the simple binary oral versus written, the essays in this volume ask not whether a text bears a relationship to the oral tradition, but how and to what extent. Written by expert contributors, these essays are highly scholarly and analytical treatments of the issues. Through their detailed knowledge about Chinese verbal art in performance or first-hand understanding of living traditions, they provide fresh insights for understanding how the oral and the written interact. Overall, this well-edited and well-written volume makes an excellent contribution to the literature in its field.

Book Rethinking Language  Text and Context

Download or read book Rethinking Language Text and Context written by Ruth E. Page and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of original research highlights the legacy of Michael Toolan's pioneering contributions to the field of stylistics and in so doing provides a critical overview of the ways in which language, text, and context are analyzed in the field and its related disciplines. Featuring work from an international range of contributors, the book illustrates how the field of stylistics has evolved in the 25 years since the publication of Toolan's seminal Language, Text and Context, which laid the foundation for the analysis of the language and style in literary texts. The volume demonstrates how technological innovations and the development of new interdisciplinary methodologies, including those from corpus, cognitive, and multimodal stylistics, point to the greater degree of interplay between language, text, and context exemplified in current research and how this dynamic relationship can be understood by featuring examples from a variety of texts and media. Underscoring the significance of Michael Toolan's extensive work in the field in the evolution of literary linguistic research, this volume is key reading for students and researchers in stylistics, discourse studies, corpus linguistics, and interdisciplinary literary studies.

Book The Interplay of Variation and Change in Contact Settings

Download or read book The Interplay of Variation and Change in Contact Settings written by Isabelle Léglise and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is at the cross-roads between two research traditions dealing with language change: contact linguistics and language variation and change. It starts out from the notion that linguistic variation is still a little researched area in most contact-induced language change studies. Intending to fill this gap, it offers a rich panorama of case studies and approaches dealing with linguistic variation in contact settings. It concentrates both on monolingual data, tracing variation and contact beneath surface homogeneity, and on bilingual data such as code-switching and other forms of variation, to trace their underlying regularities. It investigates the relationship between variation and change in language contact settings. The book will be relevant for students and researchers in contact linguistics, sociolinguistics, language variation and change, sociology of language, descriptive linguistics and linguistic typology.
