Discipline(s):
Artistic, Interpretive, & Philosophical Inquiry
The stories, rhythms, and rhetoric of the Bible have been imprinting readers and writers of English since the 7th century. Moving through selections from the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament, this course focuses on deepening biblical literacy and sharpening awareness of biblical connections to readings in other contexts. We will discuss translations of the Bible; canonization; textual history; and interpretive approaches, ancient to contemporary.
