> This seminar will study the evolution of the Adam and Eve narrative in
> Post-biblical Judaism and Christianity. A wide variety of documents will
> be surveyed including material from the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, New
> Testament, Targums, Rabbinic and Patristic literature, as well as several
> vernacular retellings of the Adam and Eve narrative from the Middle Ages
> through Milton. Special attention will be paid to the role of exegesis in
> the formation of Jewish and Christian traditions as well as the role of the
> Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha as sources of transmission of early Christian
> and Jewish themes into the medieval era.
>
> This seminar will be an interdisciplinary one. Scholars interested in the
> aims and techniques of ancient exegesis, the differences between Jewish and
> Christian approaches to the narrative of the Garden, iconographic
> representation, and the manner in which early Jewish and Christian ideas
> were transmitted into the medieval period and helped form a vernacular
> tradition of Biblical representation are encouraged to apply.
>
> ELIGIBILITY: Open to professors whose institutions do not offer doctoral
> programs in their areas, and to independent scholars (includes 4 year
> colleges and universities and seminaries). Must be U.S. citizen.
