The Book of Job as a Greek Tragedy is a literary analysis by Horace Meyer Kallen, originally published in 1918. The book examines the biblical story of Job, which tells the tale of a man who loses everything he has and is forced to endure immense suffering. Kallen argues that the story of Job can be interpreted as a Greek tragedy, with Job as the tragic hero and God as the antagonist. Kallen draws on his knowledge of Greek literature and philosophy to analyze the themes and structure of the Book of Job. He argues that the story follows the classic tragic arc, with Job's initial prosperity and happiness giving way to tragedy and despair. Kallen also examines the character of God in the story, arguing that he can be seen as a tyrannical figure who is responsible for Job's suffering.Throughout the book, Kallen provides detailed literary analysis and draws on a range of sources to support his arguments. He also engages with the theological and philosophical implications of the story of Job, exploring questions of free will, divine justice, and the nature of suffering.Overall, The Book of Job as a Greek Tragedy is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of one of the most enduring stories in the Bible. Kallen's unique perspective and deep knowledge of Greek literature make this book a valuable contribution to the field of biblical studies and literary analysis.Restored, With An Introductory Essay On The Original Form And Philosophic Meaning Of Job.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
