"It has long been recognized that Isaiah 40-55 partakes of themes and forms of a variety of other biblical texts: not only other prophetic books, but also pentateuchal stories and several psalms and laments. I will argue that this correspondence is quite intentional, that a driving force of Second Isaiah's rhetoric is the recollection, or re-collection, of other, already familiar texts into its own poetry." - Introduction.
