Table of ContentsReviewsIn many ways, the overall volume represents a grand intertextual study in the theme of chaos, spanning many cultures and languages, over a few thousand years. Most's chapters would fit well in a classics course. Maul's, Levin's, and Muller's chapters could easily be used in a Near Eastern studies or Hebrew Bible/Old Testament course. Kellner's, Mehltretter's, Hoefele's, Lobsien's, Teskey's, and Quiring's chapters would be well-suited to various literature courses. Fischer's chapter could be used in a political science or international relations course. However, when they are left together, there is a breadth and diversity, moving from origin narratives to political theories to moral considerations. Chaos itself ranges from nothing, to unordered something, to moral and social depravity, to the precursor of creation and new creation, to the motivation for authoritarianism. Jordan M.
