Upcoming Course: Poetic & Wisdom Literature
The module Poetic and Wisdom Literature is an introduction to the Old Testament Canonical books Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Songs, and to the apocryphal books Ben Sira (= Jesus Sirach) and Wisdom of Solomon. The course concentrates on the literary form, content, and background of these books. The student is trained to read, understand and remember the content of these books, to recognise their poetry and wisdom characteristics and their theological themes, and to be aware of different ways of analysing these poetic and wisdom texts.
