Description:
Using a pragmatic, reader-oriented approach and informed by contemporary theory of metaphor and related topics, Katheryn Darr examines the meaning and functions of child and female imagery for readers of the Isaiah scroll in its entirety. Having identified the associated commonplaces surrounding such figures of speech--a necessary task for competently construing the metaphysical language of another society and culture--she turns specifically to the imagery of the rebellious child and personified city (and nation).
