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 The collection includes new archival source studies and the translation of unpublished manuscripts and texts previously unavailable in English. 606 $aSocial & cultural history$2bicssc 608 $aArt.$2fast 610 $awomen's studies 610 $athe bible 610 $abiblical literature 610 $abible studies 610 $ajudaism 610 $athe old testament 610 $abook of judith 610 $amyth 610 $aholofernes 610 $aart history 610 $agender studies 610 $achristianity 610 $aGod 615 7$aSocial & cultural history 676 $a809.93351 700 $aBrine$b Kevin R$0801183 701 $aCiletti$b Elena$f1948-$0801182 701 $aLa?hnemann$b Henrike$0801184 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996205295003316 996 $aThe sword of Judith$92054276 997 $aUNISA
