Particular attention is given to the way in which ancient authors in a variety of genre and cultural settings employ a range of narrative strategies to reflect on pressing contemporary issues, shape community identity, or provide moral and educational guidance for their readers. This volume, the third in a series of volumes of collected papers emerging from the work of the "Ancient Fictions and Early Christian and Jewish Narrative" section of the Society for Biblical Literature since its formation in 1992, is the first to highlight the growing importance of strategies to integrate the fruits of this research into the university classroom and beyond"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record and CIP data provided by publisher. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Classical literature|xHistory and criticism. 650 0 Apocryphal books|xCriticism, interpretation, etc. 650 0 Civilization, Ancient, in literature. 650 0 Literature|xStudy and teaching. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 Johnson, Sara Raup,|d1966-|eeditor. 700 1 Dupertuis, Rubén R.,|eeditor. 700 1 Shea, Chris,|d1949-|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tReading and teaching ancient fiction. |dAtlanta : SBL Press, 2018|z9781628371963|w(DLC) 2017060321 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1730541|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
