Mark and Literary Materialism: A Lesson in Reading Liberation (Postcolonial and Decolonial Studies in Religion and Theology) - Hardcover
Book 9 of 17: Postcolonial and Decolonial Studies in Religion and Theology
Synopsis
The interpretation of the Bible is intricately interwoven with the history of and rhetoric of European colonization. During the modern era, the traditions of biblical interpretation played a crucial framing role in the emergence of industrialized nation-states, the capitalist mode of production, and the colonial enterprises of European powers. While the Bible has been used to justify the power of ruling classes and dominating nations, it has also been a source of liberative and resistant political discourse. In this book, Niall McKay uses the tools of literary materialism to read the gospel of Mark and build upon the representational epistemology and patterns of interpretation of the rich Marxism of the Frankfurt school. This reading is framed against and around the liberative biblical movements of late colonial and post-colonial South Africa in order to develop “ways of reading” which are generative of liberation. As a consequence, the author makes a valuable contribution to an ongoing politics and practice of resistance that is attentive to issues of religious collaboration, liberation, colonialism, and the ends of late capitalism.

As a consequence, the author makes a valuable contribution to an ongoing politics and practice of resistance that is attentive to issues of religious collaboration, liberation, colonialism, and the ends of late capitalism. Niall McKay explores the use of Christian scriptures to resist apartheid in South Africa. From this, the author develops an approach to reading the gospel of Mark which is shaped by literary materialism and examples an approach to religious texts for the sake of liberative theory and action.
