In this study, Andrew J. Niggemann provides a comprehensive account
of Martin Luther's Hebrew translation in his academic mid-career.
Apart from the Psalms, no book of the Hebrew Bible has yet been
examined in any comprehensive manner in terms of Luther's Hebrew
translation. Andrew J. Niggemann furthers the scholarly
understanding of Luther's Hebrew by examining his Minor Prophets
translation, one of the final pieces of his first complete
translation of the Hebrew Bible. As part of the analysis, he
investigates the relationship between philology and theology in his
Hebrew translation, focusing specifically on one of the themes that
dominated his interpretation of the Prophets: his concept of
Anfechtung. He thus shows that by mid-career, the impact of Hebrew
on Luther's Bible translation was immense and very diverse, more so
than has been appreciated. He expands the frame of reference with
which scholars can understand Luther's Hebrew. He provides detailed
analyses of many examples of his Hebrew translation which have
never before been discussed or examined in any depth, and hundreds
of examples of his methodological handling of Hebrew translation
issues. He also includes one of the most exhaustive analyses to
date of three key philological challenges that confronted Luther in
translating the Bible: Hebrew figures of speech, the Hebrew trope
of repetition, and Hebrew transliteration. Likewise included as an
appendix is a substantial body of refined data from Luther's Hebrew
translation, which further illuminates the examples in this study,
and facilitates additional analysis for future research. The PhD
dissertation this book is based on was awarded the Coventry Prize
for the PhD dissertation in Theology with the highest mark and
recommendation, University of Cambridge, St. Edmund's College in
2018.
