Présentation de l'éditeur
The accidents of opinion exhibit an ironic and peculiar indifference toward what historians or scientists call the truth. The forces of nature, the qualities of men, the works of the spirit we call art, have influenced civilization hardly at all by what they were in fact, but deeply and overwhelmingly by what mankind in fancy opined them to be. Fundamentcd as are tangible realities to the life of man, they remain at best only anchors and stabilizers for ideas. Thinking, some philosopher has said, is thinging. The history of civilization is mainly a history of ideas their rise, their ripening, their clash, their community; and what science calls today false has figured among them far more largely than what science calls today true. Tie present work is the record and result of reflections to which I was compelled by an enduring curiosity about the origin, character, and significance of the false, but very powerful and very ironic tradition concerning the life and labor of the children of I srael. This curiosity has driven me into many fields where I am the merest amateur and worse, and into others where the most expert is equally with the uninitiate aC hilde Roland at theD ark Tower.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a unique exploration of the Book of Job, reimagining it as a Greek tragedy. The author delves into the history of Jewish and Greek cultural interaction, showcasing how the influence of Greek theatre, particularly the works of Euripides, shaped the form of the Book of Job. By analyzing the dialogue structure, the role of the chorus, and the use of divine intervention, the author argues that Job shares striking similarities with the dramatic conventions of Greek tragedy. The book further examines the philosophical and theological implications of Job, considering its message on the nature of evil, suffering, and the relationship between humanity and God. This book invites readers to contemplate the universal human struggle with adversity, offering a fresh perspective on the enduring questions posed by the Book of Job. The book ultimately reveals how the author interprets the text as a powerful expression of the Hebraic mind grappling with the complexities of life and faith.
