Meir Sternberg \"Hebrews Between Cultures: Group Portraits and National Literature\"

• Author(s) / Creator(s)

• Meir Sternberg has been a major critic of biblical narrative ever since his ground-breaking article, “The King through Ironic Eyes,” appeared in Hasifrut in 1968. Hebrews between Cultures is a complement to his Poetics of Biblical Narrative (1985), and is a massive work: closely argued, printed, infuriatingly difficult to read, it nonetheless offers a complete, challenging, brilliant, and formidable synthesis of Meir Sternberg’s views and of the biblical narrative as a whole.
