  What is a “biblical scholar”? Stephen D. Moore and Yvonne Sherwood provide a thoroughly defamiliarizing and frequently entertaining re-description of this peculiar academic species and its odd disciplinary habitat. The modern-and -biblical scholar, they argue, is a product of the Enlightenment. Even when a biblical scholar imagines that she is doing something else entirely (something confessional, theoretical, literary, or even postmodern), she is sustaining Enlightened modernity and its effects. This study poses questions for scholars across the humanities concerned with the question of the religious and the secular. It also poses pressing questions for scholars and students of biblical interpretation: What other forms might biblical criticism have taken? What untried forms might biblical criticism yet take?

  Post Structuralism And The New Testament

  $18.00

  With typical wit and jargon-free clarity, Stephen D. Moore guides us through the maze of concepts and projects that constitute the multidisciplinary phenomenon of post-structrualism. Moore centers on two lengthy exegetical examples-a Derridean reading of John and his interpreters and Foucauldian reading of Paul and his. The book also deals with deconstruction’s relationship to theology and its relationship to biblical scholarship old and new-historical critical, narrative critical, and feminist. All who want to know what the fuss is about will owe Moore a debt of gratitude for this book.
