Aprašymas

The last century has seen the demise of age-old Jewish communal life in the Arab world, but in past centuries there was a great sharing of creative and scientific knowledge across religious lines. Stories about biblical figures held to be prophets by both Judaism and Islam are one result of this relationship and reflect an environment where not only literary genre and modes of interpretation but also particular motifs could be utilized by both cultures. One such figure that epitomizes the historical interdependence of the Hebraic and Arabic literary traditions is the prophet Joseph. Stories of Joseph examines the historical interdependence of these two traditions through the prism of Hebraic and Arabic literary treatments of the biblical prophet Joseph.
