This volume of essays by distinguished international scholars
celebrates and pays tribute to the multifarious contributions to
the study of scripture that Henry Wansbrough OSB has made over the
last 50 years, in a number of wide-ranging contexts, but most
notably as General Editor of the New Jerusalem Bible. The essays
answer the title's question in three inter-related areas:
interpretation, translation and reception. Wansbrough's academic
career has been focused in Oxford where he was Master of St Benet's
Hall.Involved in many inter-religious and ecumenical dialogues, he
is also a longstanding member of the Pontifical Biblical
Commission, founded to foster and guide biblical studies. For much
of his time on the commission he worked under Cardinal Joseph
Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI. Finally, as a monk of Ampleforth
Abbey, Wansbrough has played a crucial role in scriptural studies
for many generations of members of religious communities in the UK
and abroad. Contributors include: John Barton; Willem Beuken SJ;
Donald Bolen; Kevin Cathcart; James D. G. Dunn; Susan Gillingham;
Mark Goodacre; Nicholas King SJ; Henry Mayr-Harting; John Muddiman;
Wulstan Peterburs OSB; Adrian Schenker OP; Francesca
Stavrakopoulou; Michael Tait; Albert Vanhoye SJ; Olivier-Thomas
Venard OP; Benedicta Ward SLG; Bishop Kallistos Ware of Diokleia
and John Webster.
