In a dictionary
Dave likes to use his big vocabulary. Can you say "re-dac-shun". I knew you could.
What a way to kick off the holiday season! Thanks Dave.
Are posts like these an attempt to share misery? "Here listen to this it will make your eardrums bleed." or is this a commentary on our fascination with losers, failures, flops, and cringe-worthy human egotism?
Answer my maieutic challenge if you dare, Dave.

Ola, Guy! You caught me--I looked up "redaction criticism" in my trusty Pocket Dictionary of Biblical Studies before I wrote my post on the worst rendition of "O Holy Night" ever. Here's a portion of the entry in the dictionary:
"Redaction criticism . . . seeks to show the intentions and viewpoints of books or even a series of books." Essentially, as I understand it, redaction criticism is the act of getting inside the head of the content provider--which, I suppose, is what you've just successfully done. Cheers!
