Description
Summary:The Bible still enjoys great popularity as a pool of material for authors. This could be understood as evidence for its valid topicality. Focusing on the multiple receptions of biblical stories in literature, at the same time the view onto the biblical text itself is sharpened. This essay wants to depict the interplay between a biblical text and its literal re­ception, using the example of the death letter motive. For this purpose the motive will be analysed in the David, Batseba and Uriah-story (2 Sam 11) on the one hand and in three selected drama texts (1871‒1911) on the other hand.
