sberry,
you may want to consider Christine Hayes’ online Yale Course, which you can find at Yale online courses. There’s a link to this in the Forum’s The Hebrew Bible/Forum/The Old Testament Textbook thread. It’s pretty good. I have the accompaniment book, Introduction to the Bible but I haven’t got to prophets yet in either the course or the book. The book TOC chapter titles 14 through 20 are as follows: Israelite Prophecy; The Prophetic Response to the Events of History: Amos as the Paradigm; Prophets of the Assyrian Crises: Hosea and First Isaiah; Judean Prophets: Micah, Zephaniah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Jeremiah; Responses to the Destruction: Ezekiel and 2-3 Isaiah; Responses to the Destruction: Lamentations and Wisdom.
This looks like a good place to start. View the video too. I would recommend this free course highly.
Hebrew Bible scholar Lester L Grabbe has just come out with what looks like a terrific book on the subject.
** you do not have permission to see this link **
Grabbe is a heavy hitter in the field and after a glance at the table of contents this looks like a career compendium. As usual the hardcover version is priced for libraries but T&T Clark publishers has come out with paperback versions of their books in the past. I own a couple of them myself. Definitely worth keeping an eye out.
