摘要

宫廷故事提供了对一个社会的统治者和他们的臣民之间想象界面的叙述描述，通常可以为阅读自我和社会提供燃料。许多权威的宫廷故事展示了新背景下(埃及和巴比伦)的社会互动模式，并有助于新的企业背景化。本文试图将贝尔与龙的宫廷故事(但以理书14章)与阿拉姆语的但以理书(2-7章)和早期埃及约瑟的故事(创世记41章)联系起来。然后，它将把这些阅读锚定在亚历山大埃及的背景下——一个建议的写作地点——看看它们如何为一个可信的读者暗示身份和社会参与的模式。

“Hic Sunt Dracones”: Mapping the Rebellious Social Dynamics of Bel and the Snake from the Daniel and Joseph Competitive Court-tales

Court tales provide narrative depictions of the imagined interface between the rulers of a society and their subjects and can often provide fuel for readings of self and society. Many of the canonical court tales display patterns of social interaction in new contexts (Egypt and Babylon) and assist in novel corporate contextualization. This article seeks to read the court tales of Bel and the Dragon (Daniel 14) in relationship to both the court tales of Aramaic Daniel (2–7) and the earlier tales of Joseph in Egypt (Genesis 41). It will then anchor these readings within the context of Alexandrian Egypt—one suggested location for composition—and see how they may suggest patterns of identity and social engagement for a plausible audience.

期刊介绍： Biblical Theology Bulletin is a distinctive, peer-reviewed, quarterly journal containing articles and reviews written by experts in biblical and theological studies. The editors select articles that provide insights derived from critical biblical scholarship, culture-awareness, and thoughtful reflection on meanings of import for scholars of Bible and religion, religious educators, clergy, and those engaged with social studies in religion, inter-religious studies, and the praxis of biblical religion today. The journal began publication in 1971. It has been distinguished for its early and continuing publication of articles using the social sciences in addition to other critical methods for interpreting the Bible for contemporary readers, teachers, and preachers across cultural and denominational lines.
