Resenha de livro de Mario Liverani causa polêmica

Claude Mariottini em Mario Liverani and the History of Israel fez uma resenha da versão inglesa do livro de Mario Liverani, Oltre la Bibbia: Storia Antica di Israele. 6a. ed. Roma-Bari: Laterza, [2003] 2007, 526 p. - ISBN 9788842070603. Leia a resenha e os comentários ao post.

Jim West escreveu um post sobre a resenha, com o título de Claude Mariottini’s Impossible Impossibility [Obs.: blog falecido, link apagado: 22.03.2008]. Que provocou bastante polêmica sobre a questão da historiografia do antigo Israel. Leia o post e os muitos comentários. E recomendo, como complementação, ver o documentário A Bíblia e seu tempo - um olhar arqueológico sobre o Antigo Testamento. Que acabou de sair no Brasil. Em 2 DVDs.

Conheço e uso o livro de Liverani, desde que saiu em italiano. Acabei de indicar este que considero um excelente livro, para os meus alunos de História de Israel. Existe uma versão em espanhol, a mais acessível para a maioria. É realmente uma pena que não exista ainda uma versão para o português, embora, em italiano, já tenham saído, em cinco anos, seis edições da obra. As aulas do CEARP começam no dia 11 de fevereiro.

É claro que o livro não é perfeito, mas deve ser visto como uma tentativa séria de trabalhar a hoje tão conturbada "História de Israel".

Atualmente ninguém consegue mais escrever uma "História de Israel" sem ter que enfrentar muitas polêmicas. Nem mesmo um grande especialista em Antigo Oriente Médio como Mario Liverani.

Penso que uma História de Israel deva ser, hoje, não muito mais do que uma história/estória à base de tentativas e aberta ao debate.

Resenhas de livros sobre Rute

Estas são algumas resenhas que li enquanto preparava meu artigo sobre o livro de Rute, mencionado no post anterior. Estão organizadas por data. Nenhuma pretensão de ser completo. Estas foram as resenhas a que tive acesso durante o mês de novembro passado. Observo, entretanto, que após o livro de André Lacocque, publicado em 2004 e considerado por todos como uma obra notável, houve uma sensível diminuição de publicações sobre Rute.

As resenhas da CBQ = The Catholic Biblical Quarterly não estão online. Até existem na web, mas é preciso ser assinante da revista para ter acesso ao texto. Todas as outras estão disponíveis. A língua é o inglês, exceto a última, escrita em alemão.
