This book explores the phenomenon of shame in the Hebrew bible. It
focuses particularly on the major prophets, because shame
vocabulary is most prominent there. Shame has been widely discussed
in the literature of psychology and anthropology; the book
discusses the findings of both disciplines in some detail. It
emphasises the social-anthropological honour/shame model, which a
considerable number of biblical scholars since the early 1990s have
embraced enthusiastically. The author highlights the shortcomings
of this heuristic model and proposes a number of alternative
critical approaches.
