Lament singers--from the most ancient civilizations to traditional oral poets to the biblical psalmists and poets of Lamentations to popular singers across the globe--have always raised the cry of human suffering, giving voice to the voiceless, illuminating injustice, or pleading for divine help. This volume gathers an international collection of essays on biblical lament and Lamentations, illuminating their genres, artistry, purposes, and significant place in the history and theologies of ancient Israel. It also explores lament across cultures, both those influenced by biblical traditions and those not, as the practices of composition, performance, and interpretation of life's suffering continue to shed light on our knowledge of biblical lament. --From publisher's description.0 aPrint version record.  aMaster record variable field(s) change: 63000aBible.pLamentationsxCriticism, interpretation, etc.04aBible.pLamentationsxCriticism, interpretation, etc.07aBible.pLamentations.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01892924 0aLaments in the Bible. 0aElegiac poetryxHistory and criticism. 7aRELIGIONxBiblical StudiesxProphets.2bisacsh 7aElegiac poetry.2fast0(OCoLC)fst00907794 7aLaments in the Bible.2fast0(OCoLC)fst00991067 4aElectronic books. 7aCriticism, interpretation, etc.2fast0(OCoLC)fst014116351 aLee, Nancy C.1 aMandolfo, Carleen.08iPrint version:tLamentations in ancient and contemporary cultural contexts.dAtlanta, GA : Society of Biblical Literature, ©2008z9781589833579z1589833570w(DLC)  2008022774w(OCoLC)228701408 0aSymposium series (Society of Biblical Literature) ;vno. 43.403EBSCOhostuhttp://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=272008  aEBL - Ebook LibrarybEBLBnEBL3118197  aebrarybEBRYnebr10286058  aEBSCOhostbEBSCn272008  aYBP Library ServicesbYANKn3001358  a92bN$T  c49470d49470
