Translations: Do They Change the Story?

Last Friday in class, we posted (or commented) about the stories of Joseph as they appear in various texts.  Then we began to view a scene from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Coat and music written by Andrew Lloyd Weber and also the Dream Works version of the same story.  We may finish those up before we move on the Exodus.

In focusing on translations, you can visit this site to get a comparisons on the texts.  Our study is on the Bible and also how it has influenced other texts, stories, poetry, narratives, media, and more.  In class on Monday we will continue reading about the Israelites with our reading of Exodus.  Stay tuned!  More to come!  We will look for connections to literature and art and culture as well as lessons as we read about Moses.
