Aural Design and Coherence in the Prologue of First John

Zusatztext Brickle’s monograph is a welcome addition to the burgeoning fields of orality, aurality, and performance criticism. Brickle himself concedes that aural patterning and sound mapping are not exegetical methodologies to be employed in and of themselves, but rather are tools the interpreter has to investigate the texts performative nature. In this way his systematic exploration of the text at the lexical level is an important advancement in the field. Informationen zum Autor Jeffrey E.
