摘要

使用化妆品和身体装饰来装饰和美化自己几乎是人类经验的普遍组成部分。古代巴勒斯坦文化也是如此,它催生了希伯来圣经和早期犹太文学。尽管如此,在圣经文学的学术研究中,化妆品及其在叙事中的作用是一个研究不足的主题。本文讨论了圣经和犹太希腊化文本中化妆品的使用,证明化妆品与不道德行为和非法性行为有关。然而,在朱迪思和苏珊娜的故事中,这些角色显然没有因为涂抹化妆品油而受到这样的谴责。通过考虑使用类似于言语行为的化妆品,能够传达关于一个人的社会或性地位的特定信息,这篇文章为理解这些叙事及其女性主人公的特征提供了一个新的途径。

‘She Made Herself up Provocatively for the Charming of the Eyes of Men’ (Jdt. 10.4): Cosmetics and Body Adornment in the Stories of Judith and Susanna
The use of cosmetics and body adornment in order to decorate and beautify oneself is an almost universal part of the human experience. This was also true of the ancient Palestinian culture that gave rise to the Hebrew Bible and early Jewish literature. Despite this, cosmetics and their function in the narratives in which they feature is an understudied subject within the academic scholarship of biblical literature. This article discusses the use of cosmetics in biblical and Jewish-Hellenistic texts, demonstrating that cosmetics were associated with immoral behavior and illicit sexual practices. Nevertheless, in the stories of Judith and Susanna, these characters apparently receive no such censure for applying cosmetic oil. By considering the use of cosmetics akin to a speech act, able to communicate something specific about one's social or sexual status, this article provides a new access to understanding these narratives and the characterisations of their female heroines.

期刊介绍: The last twenty years have witnessed some remarkable achievements in the study of early Jewish literature. Given the ever-increasing number and availability of primary sources for these writings, specialists have been producing text-critical, historical, social scientific, and theological studies which, in turn, have fuelled a growing interest among scholars, students, religious leaders, and the wider public. The only English journal of its kind, Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha was founded in 1987 to provide a much-needed forum for scholars to discuss and review most recent developments in this burgeoning field in the academy.
