Bringing the Hidden to Light
Geller is Irma Cameron Milstein Professor of Bible at Jewish Theological Seminary.

He has addressed such topics as "The Dynamics of Parallel Verse" in Deuteronomy 32, the "Language of Imagery in Psalm 114," and the literary uses of "Cleft Sentences with Pleonastic Pronoun." Combining a historical orientation with deep exegeses of individual texts, he has focused on the contribution that the literary approach might make to the study of biblical religion. He has developed what he terms a "literary theology," in which, by examining the lit...

Two Excerpts from a Work in Progress
These two riffs, from a work in progress, expose the dizzying, dramatic, intensely personal relationship between two home-grown Southern Californians: President Richard Milhous Nixon and Author Stephen David Geller. They also show what happens to our country, once it is bereft of the first president of the United States who demonstrated an exceptional profile in courage, guts and glory: to know exactly when to resign his office. Think of Lenny Bruce, and how the comic's encounters with the Law provoked a personal tragedy - but the effect of which was to pave the way for generations of future comedians, who took his material, or world-view, and made it their own. Without comic Bruce fighting the good fight, as President Nixon later had done, there would have been no laugh-makers, today, to push the gags light-years farther than ever they'd gone before. Or post-Nixonian patriotic laws, to make our civilization shine.

Events prove unsettling for the good doctor, and l give rise to unnatural bawdy for the Bard. While Moshe the Jew, and Moussa the Bedouin, and Moses the Welshman confront each other during the Third Crusade---only to discover that by lying to each other and story-telling (lying) to the world, will they survive! It will also lead them to London, where an earlier Shakespeare is busily writing Hamlet, and the unsettling world of Faerie awaits everybody!
