Text Analysis Paper, due Friday, November 7: 8 pages
You will be assigned to read and analyze a work of apocalyptic literature that did not make it into the Bible and which we will not be analyzing in class. Use the same criteria to analyze this book that we used to analyze Daniel, The Book of Dreams, and the Animal Apocalypse:
o In what historical context was this book written?
o Does the author create or reflect on specific visual images? (CONTINUED ---->)
o What passages or themes from the Hebrew scriptures influence the authors work? What prophecies does the author expect to be fulfilled?
o What type of resistance is being advocated? Why?
o What is the basic theological argument of the book?
This paper requires you to do research. You must provide evidence that you have consulted at least three scholarly sources, in addition to the text you are analyzing. You must include footnotes and bibliography using the Chicago Manual of Style. A successful paper will include your own analysis of the material and will indicate familiarity with the material we have covered in class to date. The text analysis paper will make up 25% of your grade.
You must choose a work of apocalyptic literature from this list:
The Testament of Abraham (available on eReserve)
The Ascension of Isaiah (available on eReserve)
The Apocalypse of Paul (available on eReserve)
First drafts are due in-class on Monday, October 27.
I will NOT accept papers handed in via e-mail. You must submit your paper both in paper copy and on turnitin.com, which is accessed via eCampus.
