Postcolonial studies has recently made significant inroads into
biblical studies, giving rise to numerous conference papers,
articles, essays and books. 'Postcolonial Biblical Criticism' is
the most in-depth and multifaceted introduction to this emerging
field to date. It probes postcolonial biblical criticism from a
number of different but interrelated angles in order to bring it
into as sharp a focus as possible, so that its promise - and
potential pitfalls - can be better appreciated. This volume
carefully positions postcolonial biblical criticism in relation to
other important political and theoretical currents in contemporary
biblical studies: feminism; racial/ethnic studies;
poststructuralism; and Marxism. Alternating between hermeneutical
and exegetical reflection, the essays cumulatively isolate and
evaluate the definitive features of postcolonial biblical
criticism. Such a mapping of postcolonial biblical criticism as a
whole has never before been undertaken in such explicit and
detailed terms. The contributors include Roland Boer, Laura E.
Donaldson, David Jobling, Tat-siong Benny Liew, Stephen D. Moore
and Fernando F. Segovia.
