Here's a PhD thesis: What is going on, philosophically and theologically, in the transition from viewing Joshua-2 Kings as Former Prophets (Jewish tradition) to seeing them as Historical Books (evangelical) to seeing them as Deuteronomistic History (contemporary academic consensus). There's a story to unpack there similar to the story that Milbank tells (all too briefly) about how Wellhausen inscribed the liberal Protestant metanarrative into the history of ancient Israel, thus turning the OT (circularly) into a warrant for liberal Protestantism. Perhaps someone's already done this. If so, I'd like to know.
