| Abstract: | <p> The aim of this dissertation is to investigate the critique of the Old Testament which is found in the writings of Simone Weil (l909-43). The critique will be examined both for its account of the history and literature of Ancient Israel and also for its criticisms of the concept of God and the form of religion which are found in the Old Testament. The critique will be investigated and assessed in the academic fields within which it falls, namely Old Testament scholarship, the study of the Ancient Near East, and the comparative and philosophical study of world religion as a whole. </p> |
