Book Review: Leonard Greenspoon and Olivier Munnich, eds. VIII Congress of the International Organization for Septuagint and Cognate Studies: Paris 1992.

Abstract

"These twenty-four papers evoke a splendid meeting of the IOSCS in Paris in July 1992 at the noble College de France. In preparing this review of the proceedings for TC, I am conscious that the literary form of book reviews for electronic publication is still developing. One important benefit of electronic publication could be that collections of essays or conference papers can now be reviewed at greater length than is customary in hard copy publications. On the other hand, the lack of restriction of space could become a mixed blessing. Reflection on this has led to a division of my review into two parts: first, a "table of contents" of the book, then a more detailed review of each contribution."(pg 1)
