1 Samuel: a literary reading

---

In a decisive departure from traditional biblical scholarship, Miscall offers a reading of 1 Samuel that is strongly influenced by New Criticism, Structuralis, and Deconstruction. The reading pays close attention to the text, not glossing over details that do not seem to fit and not filling in apparent gaps.
Miscall carefully probes the way in which 1 Samuel develops, or block the development of, plot, characters, and themes. If characters or themes are encountered that are ambiguous or undecidable, they are accepted as such and are not written off as the product of an unsophisticated style or haphazard editing.
