Composite Citations in Antiquity Summary

Composite Citations in Antiquity: Volume 2: New Testament Uses by Dr Sean A. Adams (University of Glasgow, UK)

This is the second of two volumes that investigate the phenomenon of composite citations. The first collection of essays evaluated the use of composite citations in Early Jewish, Graeco-Roman, and Early Christian authors. This volume builds on the findings of the first and provides a fresh investigation of all the composite citations by New Testament authors. The following topics are covered: (1) the question of whether the quoting author created the composite text or found it already constructed as such; (2) the question of the rhetorical and/or literary impact of the quotation in its present textual location, as opposed to simply unpacking how the author appears to be interpreting the source text; and (3) the question of whether the intended audiences would have recognized and 'reverse engineered' the composite citation in question and as a result engaged with the original context of each of the component parts.

Composite Citations in Antiquity Reviews

Composite Citations in Antiquity is well-researched, well-argued, and provides a firm foundation from which to engage CCs in the NT. The work also raises questions for further study concerning the nature and function of composite allusions/implicit citations in antiquity, especially amongst Jewish authors. * Reviews of Biblical and Early Christian Studies *
