| dc.description | This book seeks to explore shame in the Major Prophets, because it is in these three biblical books—Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel—that shame vocabulary is most prevalent. Hitherto, shame has been discussed primarily in the literature of psychology and anthropology. Consequently, I will begin by summarizing the psychological explanations for the putative origins of this apparently universal human emotion. In the course of this I will outline the phenomenological similarities between shame and guilt, which are grounded in the shared centrality of negative self-evaluation. Further, shame and guilt have both been identified as self-conscious emotions that may be exacerbated by the disapproval of significant others. I will describe this social dimension of shame with recourse to socioscientific studies. Prominent among these are anthropological field studies conducted primarily in the Levant. Here shame, alongside its binary opposite, honour, is said to be a pivotal social value around which traditional Mediterranean communities are centred. | en_US |
