L'Exagoge d'Ezechiel le Tragique: Introduction, texte, traduction et commentaire (Studia in Veteris Testamenti Pseudepigrapha) (Latin Edition)
Description:
The seventeen fragments of the Ezekiel s Exagoge (between mid-2nd and mid-1st century BCE) relate the story of the first fifteen chapters of the Exodus. They are the only evidence of a Jewish tragedy which has come down to us from Antiquity, as well as the most extensive specimen of a Greek tragedy of the Hellenistic period. For this reason the Exagoge is of unique historical, religious and literary value. This volume provides a translation and an in-depth commentary of the fragments of the Exagoge. The author deals with philological, dramaturgical and exegetical questions and sheds light on the relation between Ezekiel s drama and the Greek Bible, Hellenistic Jewish literature and Greek classical models. The introduction focuses on general subjects: the manifold Jewish attitudes towards theatre, the social and cultural context of the performance of the Exagoge, the dramatisation of the biblical text by Ezekiel, the complicated history of the transmission of the fragments. Les dix-sept fragments de l Exagoge d Ezechiel le Tragique (entre la moitie du IIe et la moitie du Ier siecle av.n.e.) racontent l histoire des quinze premiers chapitres de l Exode. Ils sont non seulement le temoignage unique d une tragedie juive que l Antiquite nous a transmise, mais aussi le specimen le plus etendu de tragedie grecque de la periode hellenistique. Sa valeur historique, religieuse et litteraire est donc unique. Ce volume offre une traduction et un commentaire approfondi des fragments de l Exagoge. Les problemes philologiques, dramaturgiques et exegetiques y sont etudies que les liens de cette piece avec d une part le texte biblique et la litterature du Judaisme hellenistique, d autre part les modeles des tragedies classiques. Dans l introduction des questions generales sont abordees: les differentes attitudes des Juifs a l egard du theatre, le contexte social et culturel dans lequel l Exagoge a ete representee, la dramatisation du texte biblique operee par Ezechiel, l histoire complexe de la transmission des fragments."
