Jacob's Tears: The Priestly Work of Reconciliation. By Mary Douglas
Jacob's Tears began as a series of essays and, with the encouragement of its publisher, ended as a coherent, unified book. It might almost be said to mirror the corpus it addresses, the work of the biblical priests, as Douglas reads it. The book has four sections: ‘The Legacy of Jacob's So...

| Σύνοψη: | Jacob's Tears began as a series of essays and, with the encouragement of its publisher, ended as a coherent, unified book. It might almost be said to mirror the corpus it addresses, the work of the biblical priests, as Douglas reads it. The book has four sections: ‘The Legacy of Jacob's Sons’; ‘Who is “All Israel”?’; ‘Before and After the Exile: The Gap in Learning’; and ‘Magic and Monotheism’. Each section has two chapters, some staying close to Douglas's roots in anthropology (Leviticus as textual Sinai, and the body/house cosmogram); some approaching ritual from a literary and theological perspective (Jacob and Joseph the go-away goat), and some predominantly socio-historical (Ezra's reconstitution of Israel). |
