Book Synopsis Subversive Scribes and the Solomonic Narrative by : Eric A. Seibert
Book excerpt: Investigates the Solomonic narrative through the optics of propaganda and, specifically, subversion. This book explores examples of scribal subversion in 1 Kings 1-11. It examines texts that undermine the legitimacy or the legacy of Solomon and explores the social context in which scribal subversion was not only possible, but perhaps necessary.
