| Summary: | 'Staging the Sacred' examines Jewish, Samaritan, and Christian poetry from Late Antiquity through the lens of theater and performance. A highly interdisciplinary study that will appeal to scholars across religion, theatre, literature, and beyond, 'Staging the Sacred' proposes a novel interpretation of Late Antique hymnody and poetry as a performative genre, akin to oratory, theatre, and other modes of public performance, placing these works in their wider societal context. |
