Neither Deuteronomy nor its text-artifacts, however, are books in any conventional sense of the term. This interdisciplinary study reorients the analysis of Deuteronomic textuality around the materiality, visuality, and rhetoric of ancient rather than modern media. It argues that the Deuteronomic composition adapts the media aesthetics of ancient treaty tablets and monumental inscriptions to a story that is itself transformed into an artifact of the past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Lester\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004691804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004691803\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Mark Lester","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46618228883711,"sku":"9789004691803","price":128.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ddd91e0-13dd-4624-9c9c-bb10c49f8d4a.jpg?v=1740069516","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/deuteronomy-and-the-material-transmission-mark-lester-9789004691803","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
