The thirteen chapters in this collection open up new horizons for
the study of biblical drama by putting special emphasis on
multitemporality, the intersections of biblical narrative and
performance, and the strategies employed by playwrights to rework
and adapt the biblical source material in Catholic, Protestant and
Jewish culture. Aspects under scrutiny include dramatic traditions,
confessional and religious rites, dogmas and debates,
conceptualisations of performance, and audience response. The
contributors stress the co-presence of biblical and contemporary
concerns in the periods under discussion, conceiving of biblical
drama as a central participant in the dynamic struggle to both
interpret and translate the Bible. -- .
