PSALMS STUDIES TODAY: WHERE ARE WE AND WHERE ARE WE GOING?

Overview
When I attended my first Society of Biblical Literature (SBL) Annual Meeting in November of 1987 after having begun seminary teaching earlier that fall, there was no Book of Psalms program unit. Here are his words from his volume's \"Implications for Further Work\": Reading individual psalms via their Sitz im Leben, though useful, speculates on one historical slice of the Psalms and fails to grasp its role in the larger programmatic message as we have shown. [...]I would date the end of the dominance of form criticism not to Wilson's 1985 work, but rather to the 1968 SBL presidential address by James Muilenburg, \"Form Criticism and Beyond,\" in which he suggested that form criticism, while it could remain useful, \"has outrun its course. Spieckermann wants interpreters to attend to the \"individuality of every single psalm,\" and this is precisely what Muilenburg and Alonso Schökel were advocating.9 As Muilenburg put it, \"What I am interested in, above all, is understanding the nature of Hebrew literary composition, in exhibiting the structural patterns that are employed for the fashioning of a literary unit, whether in poetry or prose, and in discerning the many and various devices by which the predications are formulated and ordered into a unified whole.
