Taking the prologue of John's Gospel as a case-study in feminist
biblical criticism, the author engages with a persistent view that
the biblical text is seriously compromised by its association with
patriarchal values. Close analysis of five interpretations by
Augustine, Hildegard von Bingen, Martin Luther, Adrienne von Speyr
and Rudolf Bultmann shows how, unavoidably, interpretation clothes
the biblical text with the varied and dazzling patterns of the
patriarchal reading context. But in a second turn, drawing on the
techniques of both structuralist criticism and deconstruction, and
offering three further inventive readings of this powerful passage,
Jasper reflects woman and the feminine in the shining garment of
her own contextualized reading.
