This book considers the various ways in which the last major King
of Judah has been presented in biblical texts and the subsequent
cultures that have made use of the biblical narratives. It is
posited that there is no reliable material that can be dated to the
time of Josiah and that the literary constructions of Josiah's
reign in Kings, Chronicles, and First Esdras already provided the
inventive memory of a no longer recoverable monarch's life. Aspects
of these narratives are considered as well as the history of Josiah
in historiographical renditions of world history and in presenting
his story in narrative artistic productions.
