Classrooms in Wisconsin have been using the New Badger History Series for the last three years. The first in the series was a student reader and an accompanying teacher’s guide, each entitled Digging and Discovery: Wisconsin Archaeology, which introduced young readers to Wisconsin history through the subject of archaeology. This second edition of the Teacher’s Guide now includes enhanced directions, more answer keys, and exciting new ideas from teachers throughout the state. It incorporates revised materials, many entirely new activities, a revised format, and improved background information.

Mark J. Boda
SBL Press, 2015

A valuable resource with productive avenues for inquiry

In this collection of essays dealing with the prophetic material in the Hebrew Bible, scholars explore the motifs, effects, and role of forced migration on prophetic literature. Contributors focus on the study of geographical displacement, social identity ethics, trauma studies, theological diversification, hermeneutical strategies in relation to the memory, and the effects of various exilic conditions in order to open new avenues of study into the history of Israelite religion and early Judaism.

Features:

  • An introductory essay that presents a history of scholarship and an overview of the collection
  • Ten essays examining the rhetoric of exile in the prophets
  • Current, thorough approaches to the issues and problems related to historical and cultural features of exile in biblical literature
