Nominal Density and Semantic Compression in the Liturgical Style of 4QBerakhot
This article examines the stylistic and rhetorical function of the construct state in a liturgical pericope from 4QBerakhot (4Q286, frg. 1a ii, lines 1–11), one of the densest concentrations of construct chains in the Qumran corpus.

Il examine la logique semantique a la base de la metaphore et essaie de voir comment une theorie de la metaphore peut servir a evaluer sa beaute et sa valeur
