This volume offers 13 cutting-edge essays on the Song of Songs presented in four categories. 1. Exegetical and Contextualised Studies. Fernandes argues Solomon's sidelining in the Song is unjust and uncovers subtle allusions to him. Scheffler examines the contentious place of Song 7.1 and its depiction. Lombaard challenges whether gender equity exists in the Song, arguing that female voices are more prominent than male ones. Landy employs affect theory to the depiction of the woman as a mare (1.9-11) and the invitation for her to return (7.1). Kim highlights the subjectivity of interpretation ...
This volume offers 13 cutting-edge essays on the Song of Songs presented in four categories. 1. Exegetical and Contextualised Studies. Fernandes argues Solomon's sidelining in the Song is unjust and uncovers subtle allusions to him. Scheffler examines the contentious place of Song 7.1 and its depiction. Lombaard challenges whether gender equity exists in the Song, arguing that female voices are more prominent than male ones. Landy employs affect theory to the depiction of the woman as a mare (1.9-11) and the invitation for her to return (7.1). Kim highlights the subjectivity of interpretation by comparing readings of Song 7 by Keel, Black and herself through the lens of Umberto Eco's semiotic model. Potgieter and Lombaard contemporise Paul Decock's readings of Origen and Bernard on the Song. 2. Spatial Studies. Fischer applies Lefebvre's spatial theory to the Song, highlighting the protagonists' physical space; their conceived (cultural) space; and their lived space (their supra-temporal experience). Dantonel analyses several spatial domains in both the Song and Proverbs: spring; well; and vineyard along with three places of enduring love: mother's house; door; and window. 3. Comparative Studies. Volkonski compares Early Arabic poetic techniques and the Song to show new possibilities for interpreting the latter. Recalcati investigates parallels between the Song and Hellenistic epigrammatic poetry within the Anthologia Palatina. Biermann explores the metaphor(s) 'set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm' in 8.6 through cognitive linguistics and sensory archaeology. 4. Studies in Music. Boyce-Tillman integrates her reading of the Song with her musical compositions to contemporise themes including fertility, the body, ecotheology, and apophatic theology. Lamont and Fernandes survey four shared tropes between Arvo Pärt's The Deer's Cry, St. Patrick's Breastplate and the Song: love and war; incantation and magic; connection with nature; and in medias res.
