Overview
This Festschrift is offered to W.A.M. Beuken on the occasion
of his sixty-fifth birthday and his retirement as Professor of Old Testament
Studies at the Faculty of Theology of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. Wim
Beuken has dedicated much of his scholarly career to the study of one Old
Testament book, the Book of Isaiah. It seemed natural, therefore, that the
present volume and its editors should honour Beuken's scholarly
achievements with a collection of essays devoted to the Book of Isaiah and
related topics.
The 28 contributions are presented under four section headings. The first
section contains a series of thematically oriented studies on the Book of Isaiah
as a whole. The second section focuses on the so-called Proto-Isaiah and
includes contributions dealing with PI as a whole together with contributions
which have concentrated on specific portions thereof. The third section includes
a number of articles which address issues related to specific themes and
pericopes in Deutero- and Trito-Isaiah. The fourth and final section turns its
attention to questions regarding inter-textuality and the history of reception.
