{"product_id":"seder-eliyahu","title":"Seder Eliyahu","description":"The book is concerned with a so called ethical midrash, Seder Eliyahu (also known as Tanna debe Eliyahu), a post-talmudic work probably composed in the ninth century. It provides a survey of the research on this late midrash followed by five studies of different aspects related to what is designated as the work’s narratology. These include a discussion of the problem of the apparent pseudo-epigraphy of the work and of the multiple voices of the text; a description of the various narrative types which the work, itself as a whole of non-narrative character, makes use of; a detailed treatment of Seder Eliyahu’s parables and most characteristic first person narratives (an extremely unusual form of narrative discourse in rabbinic literature); as well as a final chapter dedicated to selected women stories in this late midrash. As it emerges from the survey in chapter 1 such a narratologically informed study of Seder Eliyahu represents a new approach in the research on a work that is clearly the product of a time of transition in Jewish literature.","brand":"De Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57334867493208,"sku":"9783110710472","price":28.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9783110710472_be90092f-75a2-4e69-b9c6-d69516035621.jpg?v=1779432342","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/seder-eliyahu","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
