Sobre este libro

Judith is an ancient Jewish novella about a woman who saves Jerusalem by killing an invading general. Its imagery and use of biblical motifs have played an important role in the Western tradition. This commentary provides a detailed analysis of the text's composition and its meaning in its original historical context. It thoroughly surveys the history of Judith scholarship and the book's history of interpretation in paintings, sculpture, music, drama, and literature.
