Anotace

Richard N. and R. Kendall Soulen have thoroughly revised this comprehensive guide to basic terms and concepts used in biblical criticism. Meticulously cross-referenced and integrating the newest methods and theories of biblical studies, this third edition now contains over eight hundred terms, phrases, names, explanations of common abbreviations, notes on major methodologies and exegetical basics, biographical sketches of key figures in the history of research, analytical outlines of fundamental critical problems, and an updated list of bibliographic tools to provide everything a student needs for a class in biblical interpretation. This new edition also includes a foldout diagram of biblical interpretation, over forty-five new articles, and an additional two hundred bibliographic entries to enhance study. Richard N. Soulen's Handbook of Biblical Criticism has served as a great standby for a generation of students and teachers. This third, revised edition, coedited by R. Kendall Soulen, reflects the major changes that have taken place in the past thirty years. In addition to the concise entries on hundreds of technical terms, major entries like Hermeneutics and Quest of the Historical Jesus (which now includes the Third Quest) have been expanded and updated. New entries like Feminist Biblical Interpretation, Intertextuality, Narrative Criticism, Postmodern Biblical Interpretation, Psychological Biblical Interpretation, and Social-Scientific Criticism highlight current trends. No serious student or teacher can afford to be without Soulen and Soulen. Colin Brown, Professor of Systematic Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary For a quarter of a century, I have consistently used and recommended Soulen's Handbook of Biblical Criticism. This revised edition is an excellent and welcome updated expansion of this valuable reference tool. In comprehensive and concise ways, this volume provides a compendium that clarifies the complex and sometimes confusing enterprise of biblical criticism. Scholars and students alike owe the Soulens great thanks for this most helpful resource. Marion L. Soards, Professor of New Testament Studies, Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary One of the most useful reference works for the student of scripture. The coverage of this handbook is amazingly broad for a one volume work, and it is impressively nuanced and accurate in its treatment of complex critical and interpretive issues. The expansion and updating of the entries take this new edition a significant step forward from earlier editions. Patrick D. Miller, Charles T. Haley Professor of Old Testament Theology, Princeton Theological Seminary
