Exploring Intertextuality at #AARSBL16

Max Lee shared on his blog that there will be a review panel at SBL in November, focused on a book to which I’ve contributed a chapter: Exploring Intertextuality, forthcoming from Cascade. The session will focus on a subset of the chapters, with the authors and others interacting around them. It looks like a great lineup. Here is the session as it provisionally stands:
