Three Faces of Saul - An Intertextual Approach to Biblical Tragedy (Hardcover)
Series: The Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies

|
A fascinating intertextual study of the classic biblical tragedy of
Saul, the first king of Israel, as first narrated in biblical
narrative and later reworked in Lamartine's drama Saul: Trag+--die
and Thomas Hardy's novel The Mayor of Casterbridge. Plot and
characterization are each explored in detail in this study, and in
each of the narrations the hero's tragic fate emerges both as the
result of a character flaw and also as a consequence of the
ambivalent role of the deity, showing a double theme underlying not
only the biblical vision but also its two very different retellings
nearer to our own times.
