To better understand the phenomenon of Literature in the Second
Degree - in Jewish and Biblical studies often characterized as
parabiblical or Rewritten Bible - the current volume applies the
theories of Gerard Genette to ancient and medieval literature from
various cultures. Literature in the Second Degree realigns earlier
(authoritative) texts to the dynamics of developing cultures and
their changing cultural memories. In the case of authoritative base
texts, Literature in the Second Degree reaffirms their authority by
way of interpretative actualization. In the case of
non-authoritative base texts it replaces them to effect cultural
forgetting. Far from being just literary forgery (pseudepigraphy),
Literature in the Second Degree has an important function in the
development of the ancient and medieval cultures.
