Bulletin of the International Organization for Septuagint and Cognate Studies. Bibliographical Review
Part 5: 2008–2017
Keywords:
Bible, Old Testament, Septuagint, research, criticism, bibliographyAbstract
The final part of the review represents the last numbers of the bulletin (or journal, since 2011) of the International Organization for Septuagint and Cognate Studies, which are open to access on the Internet by now. During the period under review the periodical was being continued to combine the functions of a forum for discussing the leading problems in Septuagint studies by specialists from around the world and a platform for the debut of young researchers. To a large extent, the result of half a century of cooperation between scientists within the framework of IOSCS was a series of translations and commentaries to the Septuagint, united by a common framework of scientific discussion. At the same time, theological issues were pushed into the background, which can be explained by the leading interests of the age. Although researchers have not approached the integral theory of the Septuagint, the status of this source (with all the reservations about the lability of its borders) as an independent, ancient and authentic witness of the biblical tradition has become quite certain.
