Book Synopsis The Self As Symbolic Space by : Carol Ann Newsom
Book excerpt: This volume investigates practices by which the Qumran community constituted itself as a sectarian society by reconstructing the identity of its members. Drawing on discourse and practice theory, the book analyzes the function of the Serek ha-Yahad and the Hodoyot in identity formation.
