The nature and reliability of the ancient sources are among the most important issues
in the scholarship on the Dead Sea Scrolls. It is noteworthy, therefore, that scholars
have grown increasingly skeptical about the value of these materials for reconstructing
the life of the Teacher of Righteousness. Travis B. Williams' study is designed to
address this new perspective and its implications for historical inquiry. He offers
an important corrective to popular conceptions of history and memory by introducing
memory theory as a means of informing historical investigation. Charting a new methodological
course in Dead Sea Scrolls research, Williams reveals that properly representing the
past requires an explanation of how the mnemonic evidence found in the relevant sources
could have developed from a historical progression that began with the Teacher. His
book represents the first attempt in Dead Sea Scrolls scholarship to integrate history
and memory in a comprehensive way
