| Resumo: | JohnPilch died in Baltimore on 22 August 2016. I am unaware if he lived to see his Festschrift, but at least he knew about it since, unusually, it contains an essay by his good self. Like his close friend Bruce Malina, he was a New Yorker of Polish descent who became a Franciscan priest, was later laicized, and then moved into full-time academic work. Further biographical details are provided in the Editors’ Preface (pp. ix-xi). He was always a fountain of new ideas and models, including from medical anthropology. He was also a warm, generous, and amusing friend. This book well reflects a particular interest of his as a founder member of the Context Group: Project on the Study of the Bible in Its Cultural Environment, namely, in kinship as it is configured within Mediterranean culture, the topic that forms the focus of the contributors’ essays. |
