Lectures on The Sacred Poetry of the Hebrews (LARGE PRINT EDITION)

Meer over het boek

In 1839, an English divine and Orientalist introduced a groundbreaking approach to Old Testament poetry, emphasizing its literary qualities through the lens of standard literary criticism. The work highlighted the significance of parallelism in poetic lines, reshaping the understanding of Hebrew poetry. However, recent studies indicate that Lowth's analyses may require substantial revisions, suggesting an evolving conversation in the field of biblical literary criticism.
