| Abstract | "This volume is intended to problematize and challenge current conceptions of the category of "Wisdom" and to reconsider the scope, breadth and Nachleben of ancient Jewish Sapiential traditions. It considers the formal features and conceptual underpinnings of wisdom throughout the corpus of the Hebrew Bible, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Hellenistic Jewish texts, Rabbinic texts, and the Cairo Geniza. It also situates ancient Jewish Wisdom in its Near Eastern context, as well as in the context of Hellenistic conceptions of the Sage. Contributors are: Stuart Weeks, James Kugel, Stéphanie Anthonioz, Elisa Uusimäki, Benjamin G. Wright, Samuel L. Adams, Arjen Bakker, Matthew Goff, Patrick Pouchelle, Maurice Gilbert, Ishay Rosen-Zvi, Gideon Bohak"-- Provided by publisher. |
