Daniel Patteとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Daniel Patte (born 1939) is a French American biblical scholar and author. Patte is Professor of Religious Studies and of New Testament & Early Christianity at Vanderbilt University since 1971. He studied in both European and American schools: following his Baccalauréat in Philosophy (Grenoble, 1958) he received a Baccalauréat en Théologie (1960) from the Faculté de Théologie Protestante, Montpellier, France; Licence en Théologie, (équivalent to M.Th, 1964) from the University of Geneva, Switzerland, and a Th.D. (1971) from the Jewish Christian Center at Chicago Theological Seminary. Patte is one of the most engaging biblical scholars, calling for an ethics of biblical interpretation that involves acknowledging the contextual character of any interpretation of the Bible, as his numerous books and articles indicate. In 1970s-1980s Patte pioneered structural criticism in biblical studies, serving as a long time General Editor of Semeia, an Experimental Journal for the Society of Biblical Literature (1992–98). Patte also chaired programs of the Society of Biblical Literature, including on Semiotic and Exegesis, Romans Through History and Cultures, and, since 2007, Contextual Biblical Interpretation. With colleagues of the Society of Biblical Literature and of the American Academy of Religion involved in these programs, he envisioned and edited The Cambridge Dictionary of Christianity (2010).
