| Summary: | "As scholars develop innovative approaches to biblical interpretation, it is important to understand the foundations upon which these new approaches are built. This volume collects essays that represent intellectual milestones that are informing sociorhetorical interpretation during the twenty-first century. The essays are arranged into five parts: (1) Topos; (2) Cultural Geography and Critical Spatiality; (3) Rhetorolects and Conceptual Blending; (4) Rhetography; and (5) Rhetorical Force. Since biblical texts were written by embodied human beings who occupied distinctive spaces in specific time periods, it is important to have a set of tools that allows for a full-bodied interpretation. The essays in this volume help to show the importance of such a mode of reading and provide strategies to help interpreters perform their work in this manner"-- Cover -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Abbreviations -- Glossary -- Introduction -- Part 1: The Emergence of Sociorhetorical Interpretation -- Sociorhetorical Criticism -- Part 2: Reworking Rhetoric and Topos -- Reworking Aristotle's Rhetoric -- The Aristotelian Topos -- Paul's Inclusive Language -- Part 3: Cultural Geography and Critical Spatiality -- Theories of Space and Construction of the Ancient World -- Storied Space, or, Ben Sira "Tells" a Temple -- From This Place -- Part 4: Metaphor, Conceptual Blending, and Rhetorolects -- Knowing Is Seeing -- A Cognitive Turn Conceptual Blending and Early Christian Imagination -- Part 5: Rhetorolects and Rhetography -- Rhetography -- Clothes Make the (Wo)Man -- Contributors -- Bibliography -- Ancient Sources Index -- Modern Authors Index -- Subject Index |
