Intertextuality and the Reading of Midrash
Author: Daniel BoyarinPublisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 9780253114617
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
Proceeding by means of intensive readings of passages from the early midrash on Exodus The Mekilta, Boyarin proposes a new theory of midrash that rests in part on an understanding of the heterogeneity of the biblical text and the constraining force of rabbinic ideology on the production of midrash. In a forceful combination of theory and reading, Boyarin raises profound questions concerning the interplay between history, ideology, and interpretation.
