DOZEMAN, T. B.; SCHMID, K.; RÖMER, T. (eds.) Pentateuch, Hexateuch, or Enneateuch? Identifying Literary Works in Genesis through Kings. Atlanta: Society of Biblical Literature, 2011, 324 p. – ISBN 9781589835429.
“The identification of literary works in the Pentateuch and the Former Prophets is a hallmark of the modern historical-critical interpretation of the Hebrew Bible. The theories of a Tetrateuch, a Hexateuch, or a Deuteronomistic History have played a central role in recovering the literary history of the Pentateuch and the Former Prophets. The breakdown of these methodologies in recent research has forced scholars to reevaluate the criteria for identifying literary works in the formation of the Hebrew Bible. The present volume explores anew, without presupposition or exclusion, the criteria by which interpreters identify literary works in these books as a resource for recovering the composition history of the literature. It also brings North American and European approaches to the topic into a common discussion. With contributions by: Konrad Schmid, Thomas Römer, Erhard Blum, David M. Carr, Suzanne Boorer, Christoph Levin, Cynthia Edenburg, Michael Konkel, Thomas Dozeman, Christoph Berner, Felipe Blanco Wißmann”. Disponível para download gratuito no Projeto ICI da SBL.

“The Pentateuch is both the literary capstone and the central core of the Hebrew biblical canon. It contains many of the best known and most influential literary texts of world literature. A firm conclusion of biblical research is that the sweeping narrative of the Pentateuch that begins with creation and concludes with the death of Moses was not composed by one author, but is the result of a literary process that took place over hundreds of years. Yet there remains significant debate among international researchers on the composition of the Pentateuch. The present volume contains a collection of articles from an international conference in Zürich that brought together leading voices from North America, Europe, and Israel to evaluate the present state of research on the composition of the Pentateuch. The aim of the conference was to clarify differences in methodology and to identify points of convergence in the present state of pentateuchal research as a basis for further discussion.

“Der Pentateuch ist das literarische Herzstück und der sachliche Kern des hebräischen Bibelkanons und vereinigt in sich viele der bekanntesten und wirkungsmächtigsten Texte der Weltliteratur. Dass der von ihm umschlossene erzählerische Zusammenhang von der Schöpfung der Welt bis zum Tod Moses nicht von einem Autor stammen kann, sondern in einem mehrfach gestaffelten literarischen Prozess über Jahrhunderte hinweg entstanden ist, gehört zu den unhintergehbaren Resultaten der Bibelwissenschaft. Die internationale Forschungsdiskussion über den Pentateuch verläuft allerdings sehr divergent. Der vorliegende Band versammelt Beiträge eines internationalen Kongresses in Zürich, der sich zum Ziel gesetzt hat, die maßgeblichen Stimmen der Pentateuchforschung aus Nordamerika, Europa und Israel zu versammeln, Differenzen und Konvergenzen in Voraussetzungen, Methoden und Resultaten der gegenwärtigen internationalen Pentateuchforschung zu benennen und so eine Grundlage für weitere Diskussionen zu schaffen”.
