About this ebook
A new reading strategy for the Thanksgiving Hymns
Hasselbalch asserts that current theories about the social background of Thanksgiving Hymns are unable to explain its heterogeneous character. Instead the author suggests a reading strategy that leaves presumptions about the underlying social contexts aside to instead consider the collection’s hybridity as a clue to understanding the collection as a whole.
Features:
- Systemic Functional Linguistics applied to four Hodayot
- Analysis that highlights the role of a mediator in the agency of God
- An approach that highlights the unity of the collection
