The authors of this volume elucidate the remarkable role played by religion in the shaping and reshaping of narrative forms in antiquity and late antiquity in a variety of ways. This is particularly evident in ancient Jewish and Christian narrative, but also in some pagan novels such as that of Heliodorus. These essays, from different points of view, illuminate the interplay between narrative and religion, and show how religious concerns and agendas shaped narrative forms in Judaism and early Christianity. These compelling and innovative articles are all based on fresh and often groundbreaking research by outstanding scholars. Contributors: Kathryn Chew, Mark J. Edwards, Erich S. Gruen, Vincent Hunink, Karen L. King, David Konstan, Lautaro Roig Lanzillotta, Dennis R. MacDonald, Laura Salah Nasrallah, Judith Perkins, Richard I. Pervo, Ilaria Ramelli, Svetla Slaveva-Griffin, Lawrence M. Wills
