The Bible is among the world’s most influential literary texts, comprised of poems, songs, proverbs and narratives that reflect even as they arbitrate, that tell the story of a culture they at the same time define. Never was the Bible’s impact on cultural formation more powerful than in post-Reformation Europe, where hermeneutics often became statecraft, biblical reading an engine for literary production.
