Produktinformationen zu „The Elusive Macrostructure of the Apocalypse of John “

On this basis, multiple and varied structural signals are recognised within specific transitional subsections. These demonstrable complex regularities create a specifically open macrostructral pattern.
Klappentext zu „The Elusive Macrostructure of the Apocalypse of John “
The author applies Umberto Eco's literary theory of the open work to the perennial problem of the literary macrostructure of the Apocalypse. Revisiting the complexities of its genre, intertextuality, language and communication, he cumulatively traces all indications of literary openness in Revelation. Then the book discusses the extraordinarily diverse scholarly approaches and analyses from this viewpoint. As a result, John's multiple and varied structural signals are recognised as demonstrably clustered within specific subsections - complex transitions creating a specifically open literary arrangement. More generally, the wider concept of literary openness is offered as a theoretical framework applicable to the specific complexities of some apocalyptic writings.
