The story has fascinated artists and authors for centuries, and is becoming a major field of research in its own right. The Sword of Judith is the first multidisciplinary collection of essays to discuss representations of Judith throughout the centuries. Bringing together scholars from around the world, it transforms our understanding of Judith's enduring story across a wide range of disciplines. The book includes sections on Judith in Christian, Jewish and secular textual traditions, as well as representations of Judith in art, music and theatre. The collection includes new archival source studies and the translation of unpublished manuscripts and texts previously unavailable in English.Social & cultural historybicsscArt.fastwomen's studiesthe biblebiblical literaturebible studiesjudaismthe old testamentbook of judithmythholofernesart historygender studieschristianityGodSocial & cultural history809.93351Brine Kevin R801183Ciletti Elena1948-801182Lähnemann Henrike801184MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996205295003316The sword of Judith2054276UNISA
