Moses in America : The Cultural Uses of Biblical Narrative (AAR Cultural Criticism Series)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book explores the retelling of the life of Moses in three 20th-century American narratives: Moses in Red, by Lincoln Steffens; Moses, Man of the Mountain, by Zora Neale Hurston; and Cecil B. DeMille's film, The Ten Commandments. Wright's analysis reveals that the figure of Moses has
strong currency in American culture at many levels.
