Description
Summary:Semantic-sonant chiasmus in the ma ca lōt -psalms (Ps 120-134) Semantic-sonant-chiasmus forms part of the variety of chiastical patterns in classical Hebrew poetry. Although not well-known it is an acknowledged poetical technique. The interesting combination of semantics and phonology simultaneously prevents monotonous repetition in a poem. At the same time it helps to create structural and semantical cohesion in a poem. In each ma ca lōt -psalm it links adjacent components and subtly emphasizes theme(s). It also plays an important role in the ma ca lōt -collection as a whole. Together with and in combination with other poetical techniques, it reiterates the literary unity of the collection.
