Reading Bibles, Writing Bodies: Identity and The Book (Biblical Limits)



Reading Bibles, Writing Bodies: Identity and The Book (Biblical Limits)
Timothy K. Beal,David Gunn | 1996-12-26 00:00:00 | Routledge | 312 | Philosophy
The Bible is one of the foundation texts of Western culture. With essays which explore how religious, political and cultural identities are embodied in biblical discourse, Reading Bibles, Writing Bodies shows that the Bible goes far beyond many religious texts. Following the authors, we ask ourselves new questions: about Gods body, racial prejudices, and the politics of the written word. Questioning our most fundamental assumptions about the Bible, Reading Bibles, Writing Bodies shows how biblical studies can benefit from mainstream intellectual discourse.
