  2. De Bijbel
    1. John Barton

    De Bijbel

    Het boek, de verhalen, de geschiedenis

    De Bijbel is het belangrijkste boek van de westerse cultuur: voor gelovigen is het de autoriteit die laat zien hoe te leven, voor niet-gelovigen is het een van de grote werken uit de wereldliteratuur. De verzameling teksten waar de Bijbel uit bestaat, maakt deel uit van onze geschiedenis en identiteit en is op unieke wijze verweven met onze taal en ons denken. In De Bijbel. Een geschiedenis beschrijft John Barton minutieus hoe de verhalen, wetten, spreekwoorden, profetieën, gedichten en brieven uit de Bijbel tot stand kwamen en wat we weten – en niet kunnen weten – over hun auteurs. Hij behandelt de verspreiding, vertaling en interpretatie van dit bonte gezelschap teksten van de oudheid tot de moderne tijd. Barton toont aan dat de Bijbel niet de onwrikbare tekst is waar deze vaak voor wordt gehouden, maar het resultaat van een lange en intrigerende evolutie. Meer nog dan een heilig wetboek voor grote wereldreligies is het een in en in menselijk document – inspirerend maar ook inconsequent, weerbarstig en soms zelfs misleidend.

  7. Il libro dei libri. Una storia della Bibbia
    1. John , Barton

    Il libro dei libri. Una storia della Bibbia

    La Bibbia è al centro della cultura occidentale: per le due fedi che la considerano sacra è il fondamento della religione, l'autorità su cosa credere e come vivere la parola di Dio. Per molti non credenti appartiene alle grandi opere della letteratura mondiale e come tale ha influenzato profondamente il nostro modo di pensare e di parlare. Il libro di John Barton dimostra però chela Bibbia non è mai stata, come spesso invece si crede, un testo fisso e monolitico, ma è il risultato di un lungo e avvincente processo evolutivo durato secoli. Partendo dalle sue remote origini per arrivare fino a oggi, John Barton descrive come e quando nacquero e furono messi per iscritto i suoi contenuti narrativi, normativi, sapienziali, profetici e poetici, cosa sappiamo - e cosa non potremo mai sapere - dei loro autori e delle loro intenzioni, e getta nuova luce anche sui passi più noti, analizzando non solo le fonti tradizionali ma anche i modi in cui queste furono compilate e rimodellate dagli antichi scribi e redattori. Illustrando il processo attraverso il quale alcuni testi considerati sacri divennero canonici e altri no, Barton ci invita inoltre a discostarci da una interpretazione letterale concentrandoci invece sul significato più profondo del Libro dei libri.
