Communication and the Role of the Lord in Amos - Thumpanathu Bincy Thomas
Their Development and Their Implications for the Text-Immanent Reader
KORTE INHOUD
This work entitled Communication and the Role of the Lord in Amos: Their Development and Their Implications for the Text-Immanent Reader belongs in the academic discourse on the book of Amos, bringing new insights into communication in all its aspects, with particular emphasis on how it develops. Through the synchronic communicative method, the Lord, the principal agent of and the central figure in the communication in Amos’ prophecy and his evolving role as it relates to the other characters and to the text-immanent reader, is brought to the fore.
Employing a combined syntactic, semantic and pragmatic approach, this study offers an in-depth textual analysis, exploring in detail the text‑immanent communication, which goes beyond the widely accepted perception of the book of Amos as a manifesto of social justice policies and a litany of condemnations. The analysis of the communication from the perspective of the text-immanent reader provides for the real reader the opportunity to actively engage with the text.
