Exum, Cheryl, ed
In recent years, biblical scholars and students have become
increasingly interested in studying retellings of biblical stories
in the arts, not only for their relation to the biblical text but also for
the story they have to tell (or, if they are not strictly retellings, for
the light they might shed on the biblical text). The eight lively
contributions to this volume illustrate a range of exciting
approaches to retellings of the Bible in literature, music, art
and film and reveal something of the scope of this
fascinating an drapidly expanding area of inquiry.
