Israel
What is exactly Israel here? Israelites? Hebrew literature?
Anglo-Saxon 'wisdom literature'
There is a large field of discussion about 'wisdom literature' in Anglo-Saxon corpus that is appropriate to include here
See for reference:
-Gnomic Poetry In anglosaxon Issue 49 , Blanche Colton Williams
-The Solomon Complex , Elaine Tuttle Hansen
- Job, ecclesiastes, and the mechanics of wisdom in Old English Poetry
- Lyric gnome in old English poetry
Note, the Americans seem to dislike Anglo-Saxon due to their perceived personal history with the term. In England however the term is acceptable. I think old English is more common for describing the literature though, its a matter of taste I guess. Its pretty much synonymous in usage.
