Excerpt from Das Hohelied: Kritisch und Metrisch Untersucht
Anfangs war ich geneigt, die Stichen, ja selbst ganze Strophen hie und da umzustellen. Nach reif licher Überlegung habe ich es jedoch unterlassen, da es nicht bloß in Volksliedern Varianten zu geben pflegt, sondern auch in den Gedichtsammlungen eines und desselben Verfassers.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed examination of the Song of Solomon, a text with a long and varied history of interpretation. The author approaches the text from the perspective of ancient Near Eastern literary culture and explores the ways in which ancient readers and writers understood its rich symbolism and erotic language. By comparing the Song of Solomon to other ancient Near Eastern texts, including love poetry and religious hymns, the author argues that the Song of Solomon is best understood not as an allegory of the relationship between God and Israel or Christ and the Church, but rather as a celebration of human love and sexuality within the context of marriage. In doing so, the book sheds new light on the Song of Solomon's place within the Hebrew Bible and offers a fresh perspective on its enduring relevance for readers today.
