| Summary: | The royal encounter between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba is the preferred subject of representations of King Solomon in light fiction. While this encounter is presented as a love story, first and foremost the cheesy moments are pointed out, while the trivial moments play a second role. Self-help-literature based on the Proverbs of Solomon focuses often on his financial wealth and his wisdom, that is, focuses on a discourse that can be called trivial. The article shows how triviality and kitsch can be categorised and how trivial and kitschy discourses are used in light fiction and, mentioned in passing, self-help-literature about King Solomon. |
