Knowing Kings : Knowledge, Power, and Narcissism in the Hebrew Bible (Semeia Studies, 40)

In Knowing Kings, biblical scholar and comparatist Stuart Lasine offers a unique study of kingship and biblical kings. Using methods derived from psychology, literary theory, and the social sciences, he demonstrates the crucial role played by information management in the maintenance and exercise of monarchical power and explores the paradoxical nature of the king’s position in the left of society. Lasine’s interdisciplinary approach includes illuminating interpretations of the biblical Saul, David, and Solomon, as well as the kingly figures Adam and Job. Among the nonbiblical monarchs discussed are Ramesses II, Esarhaddon, Homer’s Achilles and Sophocles’s King Oedipus. Lasine shows that the concept of narcissism provides a valuable tool for understanding the behavior of biblical kings, including the divine king and parent Yahweh. Knowing Kings, painstakingly researched and carefully documented, is frequently surprising as Lasine employs a variety of inventive styles to keep the discussion lively and to sustain the reader’s interest.

Stuart Lasine skillfully guides his readers through the labyrinthine and largely unexplored tunnel system connecting the courts of the biblical kings and their heavenly counterpart, Yahweh, with those of a dizzying array of other monarchs across a broad range of cultures and historical epochs. In the process, our understanding of biblical kings, both human and divine, is deepened and thoroughly defamiliarized. This is a consummately literate and erudite study that richly repays reading and rereading."

—Stephen D. Moore, The Theological School, Drew University
