This volume probes just what is meant by ‘intertextuality,’ including the controversial and exciting approach known as ‘mimesis.’ B.J. Oropeza’s introduction orients readers to the volume as a whole, and he also provides a chapter on ancient midrash that maps out the lay of the land in what is a complicated and evolving field. This chapter, and others in the first section of the volume from Karl Olav Sandnes and Erik Waaler bring readers up-to-date with respect to the growing edge of the discipline.
In the second section contributors examine important texts and themes in the four New Testament Gospels and two of the epistles. As with the chapters in part one, the contributions in the second section also critically evaluate new proposals relating to intertextuality and the function of ancient Scripture in the writings that came to make up the New Testament.
