Synopsis "How did Moses know he was a Hebrew? "

Too often Bible stories are familiar to us in the simplified version we learnt as children, or through the lessons they are supposed to teach us in religious homilies. Yet the actual stories are the products of a highly developed literary culture, narrated in an articulate and expressive Hebrew language, and nested within collections of diverse writings with which they are in constant dialogue. To underestimate the many facets of these narratives, their universal appeal and contemporary significance, is truly our loss. We will examine with adult eyes the dimensions, often overlooked or misunderstood, the wit and even humour, within some familiar and less familiar Biblical narratives, and allow them to surprise us.

John Barton es un teólogo, sacerdote anglicano y destacado especialista británico en estudios bíblicos, nacido en Londres en 1948. Desarrolló gran parte de su carrera académica en la Universidad de Oxford, donde ocupó la prestigiosa cátedra Oriel and Laing Professor of the Interpretation of Holy Scripture. Su labor investigadora se ha centrado en el Antiguo Testamento, la formación del canon bíblico, la hermenéutica y la historia de la interpretación de las Escrituras. Reconocido por su capacidad para acercar temas complejos a un público amplio, Barton se ha convertido en una de las voces más respetadas en el estudio académico de la Biblia.

Entre sus obras verificadas destacan Historia de la Biblia (A History of the Bible: The Book and Its Faiths), The Bible: The Basics, Ethics in Ancient Israel y The Word: How We Translate the Bible—and Why It Matters. En estos trabajos analiza la evolución histórica de los textos bíblicos, sus procesos de transmisión y las diversas formas en que han sido interpretados a lo largo de los siglos. Fue elegido miembro de la British Academy en 2007, y su obra Historia de la Biblia recibió el prestigioso Premio Duff Cooper, consolidando su influencia tanto en el ámbito académico como entre los lectores interesados en la historia de las religiones.
