Book excerpt: Dieter Wagner, a typical American student with core values earned over the years, is suddenly whisked away from the United States and forced to live in Nazi Germany. Since he has never been naturalized, having been brought to Germany at an early age, he becomes prey to a subversive Nazi organization bent on bringing him back as a German national. He becomes ensnared in a sex trap and moves to Germany. For the next seven years, he becomes part of Nazi Germany, where his allegiance is tested. Because of his excellent academic standing, he is treated well and, eventually, enters the Wehrmacht, where he does extremely well. He gradually sees the evil in effect by the Nazis as their anti-Semitic measures become obvious. His three bittersweet affairs are adversely affected by the Nazis. He befriends a Polish Jew and takes a prominent role in helping many families escape to Sweden. He is given a special ring with the message that he never should part with it. The war is won, and he returns to America. He exposes a plot to smuggle artistic items from Germany and is rewarded by earning citizenship. He uses his technical knowledge to start an electronics company, which becomes extremely successful. There is a hostile takeover attempt by trying to label him a Nazi. After undergoing a long legal campaign, the ring becomes the basis for his successful defense.

Book excerpt: This original study offers, for the first time, an analysis of the characterization of Esther as she is portrayed in each of the three primary versions of the book of Esther-the Masoretic text, the Septuagint text, and the Greek a text. This study of characterization has implications beyond itself. It permits a reasssessment of relations between the book of Esther and other literature of the time, it sheds light on the place of origin of the ancient versions of Esther, and it raises serious feminist and canon-critical questions about the role of the book.

This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays considers the Book of Esther from a literary and sociological perspective. In part one, Else Holt outlines the main questions of historical-critical research in the Book of Esther. She also discusses the theological meaning of a biblical book without God, and examines how the book was transmitted through the last centuries BCE. She also explores how the Hebrew and Greek variants of the Book of Esther picture its main character, Esther, the Jewish queen of Persia. In part two, Holt offers deconstructive reading of themes hidden under the surface-levels of the book. Chapters include discussions of Esther's initiation into her role as Persian queen; the inter-textual conversation with two much later texts, The Arabian Nights and The Story of O; and the relationship between Mordecai, the Jew, and his opponent Haman, the Agagite, as a matter of mimetic doublings. The last part of the book introduces the sociological concept of ethnicity-construction as the backdrop for perceiving the instigation of the Jewish festival Purim and the violence connected to it, and looks at the Book of Esther as an example of trauma literature. The concluding chapter analyses the moral quality of the book of Esther, asking the question: Is it a bedtime story?

Book excerpt: The Book of Esther is one of the five Megillot. It tells the story of a Jewish girl in Persia, who becomes queen and saves her people from a genocide. The story of Esther forms the core of the Jewish festival of Purim. The commentary presents a literary analysis of the text, taking into account the inclusion and arrangement of different pericopes, and an analysis of the narration. Likewise, it will discuss the style, the syntax, and the vocabulary. The examination of the intellectual context of the book, biblical and extrabiblical textual traditions on which the book is based and with which it is in intertextual dialogue, leads to a discussion of the redactional process and the historical and social contexts in which the authors and redactors worked.
