註釋
From celebrated translator of the Hebrew Bible Robert Alter, the "groundbreaking" (
Los Angeles Times
) book that explores the Bible as literature, a winner of the National Jewish Book Award.
Renowned critic and translator Robert Alter's
The Art of Biblical Narrative
has radically expanded our view of the Bible by recasting it as a work of literary art deserving studied criticism. In this seminal work, Alter describes how the Hebrew Bible's many authors used innovative literary styles and devices such as parallelism, contrastive dialogue, and narrative tempo to tell one of the most revolutionary stories of all time: the revelation of a single God. In so doing, Alter shows, these writers reshaped not only history, but also the art of storytelling itself.
