Description

This scholarly volume examines Literature in the Second Degree across Jewish, Biblical, and medieval texts using Gerard Genette's theoretical framework. The work explores how paratextual and rewritten literature realigns earlier authoritative texts to reflect the dynamics of developing cultures and their evolving cultural memories. By applying rigorous literary theory to ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean sources alongside their medieval reflections, the book demonstrates how Literature in the Second Degree reaffirms textual authority through interpretative actualization. Published by Brill, this comprehensive study bridges multiple cultural traditions and time periods, offering essential insight into how foundational texts are adapted, reinterpreted, and integrated into new literary contexts across centuries of literary development.

Key Features

Applies Gerard Genette's paratextual theories to ancient Near Eastern, Mediterranean, and medieval literary texts.

Examines parabiblical and Rewritten Bible traditions within the broader framework of Literature in the Second Degree.

Analyses how authoritative base texts maintain cultural relevance through interpretative actualization across different periods.

Explores connections between Jewish and Biblical studies traditions and comparative literature from multiple cultures.

Published by Brill, a leading academic publisher specialising in ancient studies and literary theory.
