Description - Reading Ecclesiastes by Mary E. Mills
This text explores the literary style and themes of the Book of Ecclesiastes, investigating its overall theological messages and the cultural perspectives that readers bring to bear on their act of reading. Examining the meaning found in Ecclesiastes through the use of two important contemporary reading methods - narrative criticism and cultural exegesis - Mary Mills breaks new ground. Highlighting the range of theological meaning attached to the book of Ecclesiastes as a result of treating the text as a form of narrative and a story told in the first person, this book should appeal to biblical scholars and all those interested in narrative criticism, literary studies and interpretation, and the ancient world more widely.
