Envisioning Writing: Texts and Power in Early Judaism - The Library of Hebrew Bible / Old Testament Studies
Donald C. Polaski
This work traces the development of Judaism as a Scriptural religion, claiming that this did not arise from discrete moments of political authority (e.g., Sinai, Josiah, Ezra), but was part of a complex and multifarious negotiation involving writing, literacy, orality and the socio-political power of the Persian, Greek and Roman empires.
