Sumario: | The aim of this volume of "Semeia" is to explore the issue of intertextuality, which has recently gained wide and varying attention especially within comparative literature and cultural criticism circles and among a growing number of biblical scholars of quite different stripes. Set over against a traditional, restrictive notion of "literary influence," intertextuality has emerged as a fertile concept that, for many scholars, has expanded the ways of accounting for the complex relationship of texts to texts, to interpretive traditions, to writers and readers, and to institutional contexts. Intertextuality serves as a critical gateway that opens out onto matters of ideology, subjectivity, the material production of meaning, and accountability. Like the closely related "concepts" of narrative, genre, and linguistic structure, the meaning of intertextuality is not univocal; it acquires different nuances and meanings in the hands of different readers of literature and culture. So it is the case in this volume. Our aim here is to situate the range of uses that the concept currently enjoys within literary critical circles especially, to present the efforts of certain biblical critics who draw from these diverse resources, and to explore the extent of their distinctive application in the reading and rewriting of biblical texts. This volume gathers together essays that focus upon historical, theoretical, and applied issues. Our intent is not to be exhaustive but illustrative; i.e., to display the diversity of understandings, approaches, readers, and texts addressing this issue as a reflection of the diverse state of affairs within biblical studies itself. |
