Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late antiquity was a perilous time for children, who were often the first victims of economic crisis, war, and disease. They had a one in three chance of dying before their first birthday, with as many as half dying before age ten. Christian writers accordingly sought to speak to the experience of bereavement and to provide cultural scripts for parents who had lost a child. These late ancient writers turned to characters like Eve and Sarah, Job and Jephthah as models for grieving and for confronting or submitting to the divine. Jephthah's Daughter, Sarah’s Son traces the stories these writers crafted and the ways in which they shaped the lived experience of familial bereavement in ancient Christianity. A compelling social history that conveys the emotional lives of people in the late ancient world, Jephthah's Daughter, Sarah's Son is a powerful portrait of mourning that extends beyond antiquity to the present day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story of Jephthah's vow, recorded in Judges, chapter 11, has attracted the attention of generations of Bible scholars and has gripped the imagination of creative artists from ancient to modern times. The story has served as an inspiration for the composition of dramas, novels, songs, cantatas, oratorios, and operas. The appeal of the story has been attributed to the emotional qualities and the dramatic possibilities that it holds. According to the biblical account, Jephthah, newly elected as leader over Israel, vows to the Lord that should he be granted victory over the Ammonites he will sacrifice to Him the first one who greets him upon his return from battle. The first to greet him following his defeat of the Ammonites is his daughter, who is then sacrificed.Jephthah and His Vow challenges the widespread opinion that Jephthah literally put his daughter to death. It maintains that the almost unanimous support this opinion has received in recent years is not justified and the alternate conclusion that the daughter was not put to death but had to remain a virgin, consecrated to God, for the remainder of her life has equal, if not more validity. Marcus demonstrates that the Hebrew text of the story is often ambiguous and is open to different interpretations. He analyzes the history of the exegesis, the original intent of the vow, as well as, biblical and non-biblical literary parallels. Marcus concludes that the evidence is such that both conclusions for the fate of Jephthah's daughter are equally possible, and that this very ambivalence was in fact the original intention of the narrator. Dr. David Marcus was born and educated in Dublin, Ireland. He did his undergraduate work at Trinity College, Dublin, and at Cambridge University in England. He did graduate work in Philadelphia and New York, and he received his Ph.D. from Columbia University in the Department of Middle East Languages and Cultures. Dr Marcus is the author of numerous scholarly articles and two language manuals, one on the Akkadian language, and the other on the language of the Talmud. He has taught for many years at Columbia University and currently is teaching at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established in 1917, the Index of Christian Art, located at Princeton University, is now the largest archive of medieval art in existence and the most specialized resource for the iconographer. Throughout its eighty-five years, it has justly been recognized as one of the most learned institutions for the study of the art and culture of the medieval world. The essays in this book, all by staff or scholars of the archive, highlight some of the current research in the archive and the scholarship for which it has been widely renowned. The studies cover art from the Late Antique period to the end of the fifteenth century and include most of the media represented in the archive, from manuscripts to sculpture to glass. From reinterpreting previous scholarship to making new insights into the medieval mind, they explore such themes as Jephtha's Daughter; Mary Magdalene; Saints Blaise, Paul, Joseph, and Elisabeth of Hungary; and topics including women in the Bibles moralis es, Late German sermons, the iconographic program at Bourges Cathedral, Franciscan devotional art, and a late medieval Islamic manuscript. This volume presents some of the most exciting and interdisciplinary approaches to the study of these subjects, from the home of medieval iconography in Princeton. The contributors are Adelaide Bennett, Lois Drewer, Ivan Great, Judith Golden, Gerald Guest, Margaret Jennings, Margaret Lindsey, Mika Natif, Lynn Ransom, Pamela Sheingorn, and A. E. Wright.
