The prime and "unique" contribution of this study is the
meta-theoretical approach according to which a popular method of
analysis and interpretation regarding the books of Samuel is
discussed an evaluated critically. This is an important and
necessary discussion, because interdisciplinary studies must not be
reduced to a mere application of individual theoreticians or
theoretical concepts on new objects, which are assessed only by
their ability to produce "new" interpretations or solve problems
(as those observed by the historical-critical approach). It is also
essential for an academic study to discuss the validity of a
certain theory or method. Furthermore, it is also important that
the theory is discussed and tested in relation to narrative texts.
Questions considered include "Do the texts of the Bible have forms
that do not comply with the frames interpreters assume? What aims
and agendas do literary or narrative methods serve in the hands of
biblical interpreters? The main goal of this study is to attempt a
better understanding of the biblical texts and their influence and
meaning.
