Book Description:
The sixteen essays in this book take a range of approaches and methodologies to the function of sacred books in pagan, Jewish and Christian antiquity. A wide range of topics are covered including a discussion of the emergence of canonical scriptures in late antiquity; investigation of parallels between exegesis of Homer by the Greeks and that of the Bible by the Jews; a discussion of the use of scared books as instant oracles; a study of the rise of Virgil's Aeneid to the status of 'canonical' book.
