The essays in this volume develop the highly suggestive insights
and theory of James C. Scott-especially those related to patterns
of domination and subordination, the role of religion in supporting
or opposing the powerful, and the "arts of resistance" by the
subordinated-to tackle key issues in the interpretation of Jesus
and Paul. All the contributors implicitly or explicitly assume a
stance sympathetic with subordinated peoples of the past and
present. While all pursue primarily critical literary, historical,
and social analysis on New Testament texts in historical contexts,
some also examine illuminating historical or contemporary
comparative materials. In addition, some even find Scott useful in
critical self-examination of scholarly motives, stances, and
approaches in relation to texts and their uses. The contributors
are Allen Dwight Callahan, Warren Carter, Neil Elliott, Susan M.
Elliott, Erik Heen, William R. Herzog II, Richard A. Horsley,
Cynthia Briggs Kittredge, and Gerald West. Paperback edition is
available from the Society of Biblical Literature
(www.sbl-site.org).
