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. 410 0$aStudies on the texts of the desert of Judah ;$vv. 52. 606 $aQumran community 606 $aHebrew language$xDiscourse analysis 606 $aHebrew language$xReligious aspects$xJudaism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aQumran community. 615 0$aHebrew language$xDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aHebrew language$xReligious aspects$xJudaism. 676 $a296.1/55 700 $aNewsom$b Carol A$g(Carol Ann),$f1950-$0259860 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450900303321 996 $aThe self as symbolic space$92236761 997 $aUNINA
