Ehud Ben Zvi has been at the forefront of exploring how the study
of social memory contributes to our understanding of the
intellectual worldof the literati of the early Second Temple period
and their textual repertoire. Many of his studies on the matter and
several new relevant works are here collected together providing a
very useful resource for furthering research and teaching in this
area. The essays included here address, inter alia, prophets as
sites of memory, kings as sites memory, Jerusalem as a site of
memory, a mnemonic system shaped by two interacting 'national'
histories, matters of identity and othering as framed and explored
via memories, mnemonic metanarratives making sense of the past and
serving various didactic purposes and their problems, memories of
past and futures events shared by the literati, issues of gender
constructions and memory, memories understood by the group as
'counterfactual' and their importance, and, in multiple ways, how
and why shared memories served as a (safe) playground for exploring
multiple, central ideological issues within the group and of
generative grammars governing systemic preferences and
dis-preferences for particular memories.
