TY - BOOK AU - Giles, Terry AU - TI - Twice used songs SN - 9781598562729 U1 - 221.0663 CY - Peabody, U.S.A KW - Hebrew poetry, Biblical N2 - Terry Giles and Bill Doan have teamed up to apply the methodologies of performance criticism to the `performances` found in songs that are used in the Old Testament narrative. These songs were first used elsewhere and thus are `twice-used.` The result is a serious, helpful, innovative appraisal of Scripture portions that often seem `out of place` within their narrative contexts. With the aid of this new application of insights from the theatre arts, portions of Scripture spring up fresh and alive, giving the present-day reader valuable insights into why these `twice-used songs` are found where they are, and how they were designed to draw in the original readers/hearers to these passages ER -
