About this product

Product Information

This volume stems from a conference held at Princeton University, which brought together leading scholars in the study of ancient religions. Claims to divine revelation are t simply a common trope in ancient religious texts: they often determine the structure of these texts and of the communities that produce them. The authors of the studies collected here examine the literary and social functions of revelation in late antiquity from early Christianity and rabbinic Judaism to early Islam, contributing both to our understanding of the phemen of revelation as well as to the study of the great transformations, interactions, and tensions typical of this important period. Table of contents: Philippa Townsend and Moulie Vidas: Introduction: Revelation, Literature, Community, and Late Antiquity Annette Yoshiko Reed: Pseudepigraphy and/as Prophecy: Continuity and Transformation in the Formation and Reception of Early Echic Writings Christine Trevett: Prophets, Ecomics, and the Rites of Man Pavlos Avlamis: Isis and the People in the Life of Aesop John D.
