The Blackwell Companion to the Bible and Culture (Hardcover, New)

The Blackwell Companion to the Bible and Culture offers readers a stimulating, one-volume reference source about twenty-first century approaches to the Bible. Drawing on interdisciplinary and international examples, the volume explores how the Bible has impacted on all the major social contexts where it has been influential - world-wide, ancient, medieval and modern. It also offers guidance on how to read the Bible and its many interpretations. The companion consists of 25 articles written by distinguished specialists, each of which is accompanied by a comprehensive bibliography. Taken together, these articles emphasise the multi-faceted nature of the Bible and its impact on the world. They help to bridge the gap between specialist biblical and theological studies and other disciplines, such as literature, art, music, history, religious studies, politics, ecology and sociology.
