{"product_id":"the-reception-and-remembrance-of-pernille-carstens-9781463200541","title":"The Reception and Remembrance of Abraham","description":"This book explores the role of the biblical patriarch Abraham in the formation and use of authoritative texts in the Persian and Hellenistic periods. It reflects a conference session in 2009 focusing on Abraham as a figure of cultural memory in the literature of these periods. Cultural memory is the shared reproduction and recalling of what has been learned and retained. It also involves transformation and innovation. As a figure of memory, stories of Abraham served as guidelines for identity-formation and authoritative illustration of behaviour for the emerging Jewish communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pernille Carstens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1463200544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781463200541\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gorgias Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Pernille Carstens","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44052839760127,"sku":"9781463200541","price":128.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2589adf2-a381-497f-a3b0-68d7f8840a5d.jpg?v=1685021010","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-reception-and-remembrance-of-pernille-carstens-9781463200541","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
