Shiell, William author. Reading Acts : The Lector and the Early Christian Audience / William Shiell. The Lector and the Early Christian Audience Leiden; Boston : BRILL, 2004. 1 online resource (254 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Biblical Interpretation Series ; 70 Description based on print version record. William Shiell proposes that the book of Acts was performed orally by a lector in the early church following Greco-Roman rhetorical conventions for recitation and delivery rather than directly read by an audience that was minimally literate. Shiell's study outlines the function of the lector in Greco-Roman times as a filter through which an audience would receive a text. He describes the conventions for performers' gestures, facial expressions, and vocal inflections found in material from Greco-Roman literature and art that are mirrored in the book of Acts. He examines how a reading of Acts in this light can fill interpretive gaps left by literary and rhetorical-critical studies that focus on the reading rather than the hearing of biblical texts. Includes bibliographical references and index. Acts of the Apostles (Bible book) Christian literature, Early History and criticism. Christian literature, Early. Primitive Christian Literature History and Criticism. Bible. Acts Criticism, interpretation, etc. Print version: Shiell, William Reading Acts Boston : BRILL,c2004 9780391042162 Biblical Interpretation Series ; 70. |
