Many readers are convinced that the Psalms are hopelessly
"masculine," especially given that seventy-three of the 150 psalms
begin with headings linking them to King David. In this volume,
Denise Dombkowski Hopkins sets stories about women in the Hebrew
Bible alongside Psalms 42-89 as "intertexts" for interpretation.
The stories of women such as Hannah, Rahab, Tamar, Bathsheba,
Susanna, Judith, Shiphrah, Puah, and the Levite's concubine can
generate a different set of associations for psalm metaphors than
have traditionally been put forward. These different associations
can give the reader different views of the dynamics of power,
gender, politics, religion, family, and economics in ancient Israel
and in our lives today that might help to name and transform the
brokenness of our world. From the Wisdom Commentary series Feminist
biblical interpretation has reached a level of maturity that now
makes possible a commentary series on every book of the Bible. It
is our hope that Wisdom Commentary, by making the best of current
feminist biblical scholarship available in an accessible format to
ministers, preachers, teachers, scholars, and students, will aid
all readers in their advancement toward God's vision of dignity,
equality, and justice for all. The aim of this commentary is to
provide feminist interpretation of Scripture in serious, scholarly
engagement with the whole text, not only those texts that
explicitly mention women. A central concern is the world in front
of the text, that is, how the text is heard and appropriated by
women. At the same time, this commentary aims to be faithful to the
ancient text, to explicate the world behind the text, where
appropriate, and not impose contemporary questions onto the ancient
texts. The commentary addresses not only issues of gender (which
are primary in this project) but also those of power, authority,
ethnicity, racism, and classism, which all intersect. Each volume
incorporates diverse voices and differing interpretations from
different parts of the world, showing the importance of social
location in the process of interpretation and that there is no
single definitive feminist interpretation of a text.
This important collection explores the attitude of white supremacy
in analytic psychology starting with its founder, Carl Gustav Jung,
utilizing Jungian analytic theory to explore ways in which the
erroneous promotion of race ideology in psychoanalysis may be
unmasked and corrected to further psychoanalytic theory and
practice. Information Classification: General The book examines
pejorative othering through intrapsychic and inter-relational
lenses, identifying under-addressed attitudes and behaviors in
which analytic training programs and learning communities may
promote an attitude of white supremacy which lurks within Jungian
theory. Through personal experiences and clinical vignettes, the
authors exemplify a psychoanalytic method of deconstructing
systematized and systemic racism within Jungian theory and within
the practices of Jungians. In doing so, they utilize the
specificity and ingenuity of Jung’s analytic paradigm to offer
insight into the work of anti-racism from a depth psychological
perspective. The result of a unique collaboration of analysts and
analysts-in-training who participate within the same Jungian
learning community in New York City, this collection challenges
Jungian analysts and organizations to reckon with ethnic and colour
biases and to engage the hero’s journey toward forgiveness,
reconciling to diversity in promotion of greater individuation and
increased organizational/communal inclusivity. Jungian Reflections
on Systemic Racism is a must-read for psychoanalytic students,
trainees, supervisors, and practitioners, as well as for
clinicians, medical professionals, social workers, mental health
professionals, sociologists, and anyone interested in social
studies and the wide impact of the unscientific construct of a
race.
