Nature and Scripture in Tel Aviv

Des collègues de Tel Aviv nous informent de ce beau projet :

Conceptualizing Nature in Eastern Mediterranean Cultures of the 2nd–1st Millennia BCE: The Use of Textual and Pictorial Evidence

There is no word in the Hebrew Bible (HB) for “nature.” Indeed, throughout the languages of Eastern Mediterranean during the second and first millennia BCE, there are no simple and direct analogues to Western (Greco-Roman and modern) conceptualizations of nature. This project draws together an interdisciplinary team of scholars, integrating textual and pictorial evidence to arrive at an understanding of ancient Israelite conceptualizations of nature and the natural world.

The TAU-Emory proposed collaboration has the goal of identifying clear methodologies for uncovering conceptions of nature on the basis of literary and pictorial sources that refer to natural phenomena. We recognize that these two often used explanations of “nature” are not mutually exclusive. Thus, the TAU-Emory project explores descriptions of natural phenomena to learn about conceptions of nature. Each of the participants will be engaged in searching out the relationship between the literary imagery found in the Hebrew Bible and the conceptual background of these images, as attested through other literary texts and also through the pictorial imagery of the ancient Near East.

This proposal takes place as part of the DNI Bible (Dictionary of Nature Imagery of the Bible) project developed and led by Prof.Dalit Rom-Shiloni to address this major question on conceptions of nature in the HB and ANE cultures more broadly.
