{"product_id":"narrative-criticism-of-the-new-testament-an-introduction-9780801027895","title":"Narrative Criticism of the New Testament: An Introduction","description":"Narrative criticism is a relatively recent development that applies literary methods to the study of Scripture. James Resseguie suggests that this approach to reading the Bible treats the text as a self-contained unit and avoids complications raised by other critical methods of interpretation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eResseguie begins with an introductory chapter that surveys the methods of narrative criticism and how they can be used to discover important nuances of meaning through what he describes as a \"close reading\" of the text. He then devotes chapters to the principal rhetorical devices: setting, point of view, character, rhetoric, plot, and reader.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReaders will find here an accessible introduction to the subject of narrative criticism and a richly rewarding approach to reading the Bible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1451179\"\u003eJames L.
