Expect the Unexpected: Aspects of Pragmatic Foregrounding in Old Testament Narratives - The Library of Hebrew Bible / Old Testament Studies
Stefano Cotrozzi
A monograph on biblical linguistics that is a pragmatic investigation of the controversial question of 'foregrounding' - the deviation from some norm or convention - in Old Testament narratives. It critiques the particular evaluative device known as the 'historic present', a narrative strategy that employs the present tense to describe past event.
