'Symposia' illuminates the central issues and concerns of biblical
studies by presenting a series of stories. The model for the
stories is the ancient Greek idea of the symposium, a 'sitting down
together for the purpose of drinking'. In Plato's writings, the
symposium becomes a genre of writing with Socrates at its centre, a
character who perpetually questions in order to develop the pursuit
of knowledge. Some of the most influential figures in the history
of biblical studies - Julius Wellhausen, Hermann Gunkel, Martin
Noth, Brevard Childs, Norman Gottwald, Phyllis Trible, and the
Bible and Culture Collective - become the central characters in
these stories. Each aims to voice their central arguments, to
highlight and confront the key challenges they see and, of course,
to dispute the positions of others.
