Auguries: The Jubilee Volume of the Sheffield Department of Biblical Studies
by Clines, David J. A., Moore, Stephen D.
•Sheffield Academic Press 1998
Overview
For Auguries, sequel to The Bible in Three Dimensions, the seven full-time members of the research and teaching faculty in biblical studies at Sheffield set themselves a common task: to reflect on what they hope or imagine, as century gives way to century, will be the key areas of research in biblical studies, and to paint themselves, however modestly, into the picture. The volume contains, as well as those seven principal essays, a 75-page intellectual biography of the department and a revealing sketch of the material conditions of its research and teaching, together with a list of its graduates and the titles of their theses.
In the Logos edition, all Scripture references in Auguries link to the original language texts and the Bibles in your library. By employing Logos’ advanced search features, you can find the exact topics or passages you’re looking for. Whether you are encountering the cultural context of the Bible for the first time, or you’re working on advanced archaeological, historical, or textual research, the Logos edition is right for you.
