| Abstract | "Literary Allusions in Esther: A Study on the Convergence of Intertexts and Narrative examines the robust intertextual nature of MT Esther. Its textual landscape is filled with a plethora of allusions to other texts scattered throughout the Old Testament canon. While these intertexts have often been identified individually, they have not always been considered a collective whole. By employing a new, eclectic method of exegetical analysis ('Analogical Convergence'), the author demonstrates one means by which these intertexts complement one another and converge with the authorial intention embedded into MT Esther"-- Provided by publisher, page 4 of cover. |
