The Book of Job as a Greek Tragedy is a book written by Horace Meyer Kallen in 1918. The book is a study of the Book of Job, which is a part of the Hebrew Bible. Kallen argues that the Book of Job can be seen as a Greek tragedy, and that it shares many of the same characteristics as Greek tragedies.Kallen begins by providing a brief overview of the Book of Job and its themes. He then goes on to compare the structure and themes of the Book of Job to those of Greek tragedies. He argues that the Book of Job has a clear structure, with a prologue, dialogue, and epilogue, which is similar to the structure of Greek tragedies.Kallen also examines the themes of the Book of Job, such as the problem of evil and the nature of God. He argues that these themes are also present in Greek tragedies, and that the Book of Job can be seen as a response to the same questions that Greek tragedies address.Throughout the book, Kallen provides detailed analysis of the text of the Book of Job, as well as references to other Greek tragedies and works of literature. He also provides historical and cultural context for both the Book of Job and Greek tragedies.Overall, The Book of Job as a Greek Tragedy is a scholarly work that provides a unique perspective on the Book of Job. It argues that the Book of Job can be seen as a work of literature that shares many characteristics with Greek tragedies, and that it should be studied in this context.Restored, With An Introductory Essay On The Original Form And Philosophic Meaning Of Job.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
