Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. First Edition First Printing. Octavo. 308, (2) pages, indexed. Hardcover bound in red cloth. Light wear to the binding. Prior owner's name on the front paste flyleaf. The original narrative dates from about 200 B.C. to 200 C.E. This was the romance of Joseph of Genesis and his Egyptian… wife Aseneth. There is some question over its origin and authorship. The oldest existing copy was written about 570 C.E. in Syriac and was apparently based on an older Greek manuscript. Some consider it a Jewish Midrash and a translation of it is included in the Pseudepigrapha.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This monograph, the first in English on any aspect of Joseph and Aseneth, examines Aseneth's conversion as narrated in this important but neglected apocryphal Jewish romance. An extensive history of research on Joseph and Aseneth and an analysis of key issues such as text, original language,… character, provenance, date, and genre, precede and inform the study of conversion. The story of Aseneth's conversion has too often been understood on the basis of premature and superficial comparisons with other paradigms of conversion and initiation in the Hellenistic world. As a corrective, Chesnutt assigns priority to descriptive over comparative analysis. He draws comparisons and contrasts with other models of conversion and initiation only after he has carefully examined Aseneth's conversion in its own right within the literary context of Joseph and Aseneth and the social context which the document itself reflects. The attention not only to conversion but also to much broader social and religious dimensions of Judaism in antiquity makes this book important for specialists in Christian origins, Greco-Roman religions, women's studies, and patristics, as well as the history of Judaism Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
