Description

Explore the complex history of biblical storytelling with Sustaining Fictions: Intertextuality, Midrash, Translation, and the Literary Afterlife of the Bible. This scholarly work from T&T Clark examines how writers have revisited and reworked biblical narratives long before the canon was even fixed. From the author of Joshua rewriting the settlement of Israel to the writer of Chronicles refining the David cycle, this book tracks how stories change through different lenses. You will see how these retellings move beyond inner-biblical exegesis to influence the New Testament, rabbinic midrash, medieval mystery plays, and Renaissance poetry. This text is an essential resource for those studying the literary evolution of sacred texts. It provides a deep look at how translation and reinterpretation keep ancient stories alive across different eras and cultures. Whether you are a researcher or a student of religious literature, this volume offers a clear view of how the Bible continues to shape literary history.
