The articles in this collection form two groups: the first set of essays focuses on specific episodes or moments of historical change within European biblical literary traditions; the second group focuses on the dissemination of biblical literary engagements in areas outside of European contexts, ranging from North America to South Africa to China. Unique in the wide range of topics it covers itself a reflection of Jeffrey’s own broad scope of scholarship, the collection functions as a working example of Jeffrey’s thesis that the biblical tradition has a far-reaching influence on the development of western literature, even by those who are reluctant to acknowledge its present influence.
