Key to the formation of the community was the reconstruction of the identity of individual members. In this way the “self” became an important symbolic space for the development of the ideology of the sect. Persons who came to experience themselves in light of the narratives and symbolic structures embedded in the community practices would have developed the dispositions of affinity and estrangement necessary for the constitution of a sectarian society. Drawing on various theories of discourse and practice in rhetoric, philosophy, and anthropology, the book examines the construction of the self in two central documents: the Serek ha-Yahad and the Hodayot.Studies on the texts of the desert of Judah ;v. 52.Qumran communityHebrew languageDiscourse analysisHebrew languageReligious aspectsJudaismElectronic books.Qumran community.Hebrew languageDiscourse analysis.Hebrew languageReligious aspectsJudaism.296.1/55Newsom Carol A(Carol Ann),1950-259860MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450900303321The self as symbolic space2236761UNINA01617nas 2200529- 450 991016433730332120200728070841.2(OCoLC)876298488(CKB)2550000001347047(CONSER)--2014234137(EXLCZ)99255000000134704720140410a20149999 --- aengurbn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierPolicy and complex systemsWashington, DC :Policy Studies Organization,[2014]-2372-8590 Journal on policy and complex systemsJPCSPolicy complex sys.Social policyPeriodicalsSystem theoryPeriodicalsLarge scale systemsPeriodicalsSocial systemsPeriodicalsLarge scale systemsfast(OCoLC)fst00992666Social policyfast(OCoLC)fst01122738Social systemsfast(OCoLC)fst01123410System theoryfast(OCoLC)fst01141423Periodicals.fastSocial ConditionsSocial policySystem theoryLarge scale systemsSocial systemsLarge scale systems.Social policy.Social systems.System theory.361.61Policy Studies Organization.JOURNAL9910164337303321Policy and complex systems2125991UNINA
