Over the centuries, Ecclesiastes has influenced numerous and diverse aspects of life and thought. Ecclesiastes Through the Centuries assesses the effects of the book on the culture of the various times in religious, artistic, and social contexts. Presents an innovative, reception history approach to the study of Ecclesiastes, by tracing its influence on religion, culture, literature, art, and social thought. Explores a fascinating range of Jewish and Christian readings. Features engaging and unusual examples from art, music, literature, and history: from Thackeray and Orwell, to Salvador Dali's Illustrated Bible, to the inflammatory exposition of Ecclesiastes at the funeral of Queen Mary.
"Christianson's study of Ecclesiastes's cultural impact is rich andrewarding. [He] beautifully exposits the material that he treats,and suggests by brief reference some other avenues of fruitfulexploration. In these ways, Ecclesiastes Through theCenturies serves both as an excellent treatment of the titletheme and a good model for other reception histories to follow. Thebook may be heartily recommended, without reservation." (Bibleand Critical Theory)
