This title was first published in 2000. Text and Tablet balances a blend of logic, post-analytical philosophy, French philosophy and literary criticism to carefully introduce some of these issues to the reader. Just as writers such as Derrida and Kermode have been interested in relating religion and philosophy to literature, so this book extends the idea of multidisciplinary synthesis to connect ancient and modern issues. Linking philosophy to literature, Old Testament texts and studies, Near East archaeology, and Religious ideas and debates in fresh ways, Gibson explores ancient texts and sites and developing interpretations of some recent excavations. Addressing issues raised by leading thinkers (Chomsky, Deleuze, Wittgenstein, Renfrew, Barr) on language, life and history, Gibson seeks to challenge many entrenched views based on familiar discoveries and proposes fresh engagement between the interpretation of Old Testament studies and archaeology, using a new, multidisciplinary analysis.
Part One: A Conceptual Framework: Philosophical archaeology and ancient texts; The Old Testament and literary theory; Part Two: Old Testament and Near East interpretation: does Genesis contain 3rd millennium BC text?; Egyptian texts and the Old Testament; Generalizing about the Exodus journey; The Hebrew conflict with Canaan; The sense of opposition in David; Military theology; Babylonian and Aramaic records of Daniel; Conclusion; Bibliography.
