Abstract

En juillet 2002, les meilleurs spécialistes mondiaux de Bède le Vénérable (c. 670-735) se sont retrouvés à Lille et à Amiens pour dresser un bilan des études relatives à l'oeuvre et à la postérité du grand écolâtre anglo-saxon, et pour ouvrir sur elles de nouvelles perspectives de recherches. Venus de Grande-Bretagne, d'Irlande, du Canada, des États-Unis, du Japon, d'Italie, d'Allemagne, de Belgique et de France, ils ont passé trois jours à exposer leurs travaux, à écouter, à échanger, dans une athmosphère à la fois studieuse et confraternelle. Les organisateurs du colloque sont heureux de publier aujourd'hui les principaux résultats de ces fructueuses journées. Presque toutes les communications qui y ont été faites sont ici réunies, augmentées de quelques contributions originales que leurs auteurs n'avaient pu présenter en juillet 2002. Les unes et les autres ont été regroupées sous cinq titres dans lesquels on retrouvera, à quelques nuances près, le découpage initial du projet : 1. Bède et ses sources ; 2. Bède, l'exégète ; 3. Un historien en son milieu ; 4. La postérité de Bède ; 5. Les traductions de Bède. De cette harmonieuse polyphonie se dégage l'image d'un érudit qui, bien loin de se limiter à celle de l'ascète coupé du monde, rigoureux, voire rigoriste, qui a longtemps été mise en avant, montre un homme engagé, souvent indulgent à l'égard de mouvements ou de tendances ecclésiales peu orthodoxes, et toujours soucieux de réformer l'Église et la société de l'Angleterre de son temps. Pour y parvenir, il est allé puiser ses arguments dans des traditions testamentaires, patristiques et historiographiques dans lesquelles il a opéré un choix souvent original, et qui expliquent aussi bien le caractère unique que la portée universelle de son oeuvre.

Abstract

"Ecclesiastes, also known as Qohelet, is a fascinating text filled with intriguing contradictions, such as wisdom's beneficial consequences, God's justice, and wisdom's superiority over pleasure. Under the paradigm of modernism, the contradictions in the book have been regarded as problems to be harmonized or explained away. In Reanimating Qohelet's Contradictory Voices, Jimyung Kim, drawing on Mikhail Bakhtin's insights, offers an alternative reading that embraces the contradictions as they stand. For Kim, Qohelet's or the protagonist's contradictory consciousness is dialogically constructed by his contact with a complex web of discourses. Instead of harmonizing them or explaining them away, Kim identifies various dialogic voices available to Qohelet and demonstrates how those voices constitute Qohelet's contradictory utterances and construct his unfinalizable identity"--

Abstract

Atkinson uses Qoheleth's work ethic to provide an analysis of Ecclesiastes, utilising the writings of St Bonaventure and Martin Luther. Reading Ecclesiastes within a penitential framework, Bonaventure offers a version of the contemptus mundi tradition that is rooted in his metaphysics. His commentary is ethically significant for the way he detects the vice of curiousity precipitating a perceptual rupture wherein vanity comes to signify sin and guilt. Luther, on the other hand, interprets Solomon as a wise economic-political administrator who preaches the good news of God's involvement in quoti

Abstract

"Meaningless, meaningless, everything is meaningless." The word "meaningless" (hebel) appears more than 40 times in the book of Ecclesiastes and raises the question why a book that appears to deny meaning or purpose is included in the Bible. Many questions of interpretation as well as relevance surround the book of Ecclesiastes, including indeed the proper translation and understanding of the word hebel. If, after all, the book does examine the question of the meaning of life, what could be more important?The present volume explores Ecclesiastes/Qohelet on many different levels: linguistic, text-critical, theological, historical, and literary. The contributors, chosen from many of the leading and emerging experts on the book, present both the state of the field and their own assessment of the varied interpretive issues of Ecclesiastes. They include scholars, preachers, and philosophers. It should be helpful not only to scholars but also to all who want to study this book seriously.The first section of this volume deals with the history of interpretation. The second section is concerned with issues of history, form, and rhetoric. Section three is about key concepts and passages. The fourth section focuses on the language and grammar of Qohelet. The last section engages practical issues of interpretation. The volume is designed to provide exposure to a variety of readers who seek to engage Qohelet in fresh ways in the twenty-first century-from historians of interpretation to biblical exegetes to linguists to theological students.

Abstract

Readers of texts come from all generations, from different contexts and with different agendas. This book gives a sample of what both ancient and contemporary readers have brought to the book of Ecclesiastes in the quest for illumination of the text and for their own enlightenment, often furnishing their own agenda. Debates over meaning are formed, shaped, and illuminated by the interpreters themselves. Part One looks at ancient interpreters and at their methods of approaching the text. Jewish and Christian interpreters alike sought to find meaning amongst some of the key puzzles of the book: why does the author call himself 'the son of David' and appear to be Solomon when his pen name also seems to be Qoheleth? Why the contradictions in content? How did such an unorthodox book come to be canonized? How did the dualistic contemptus mundi interpretation of the vanity theme perpetuated by Jerome and others come to hold the field for so long? And how did Luther and the reformers seek to rectify that approach? These questions and others are addressed in this book, looking through the lens of past interpretation. Part Two acknowledges our increasing self-awareness of the importance of method in approaching biblical texts and turns to a sample of modern interpretations from familiar reading groups such as the ecologist, the animal theologian, the liberationist, the post-colonialist, and the feminist. It will be seen that different modern approaches often enlighten the interpretation of specific verses within Ecclesiastes and hence that no one method is a wholesale 'solution' to interpretive concerns. -- Publisher.
