Seller: Lacey Books Ltd, Cirencester, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. 2000 Brill hardcover edition. ex library copy with stamps and labels else good condition. From the cover: This study deals with the postmodern philosophy of language as developed mainly by French authors such as R. Barthes, J. Derrida and J.-F. Lyotard. The four chapters of the first part are theoretical and relate the literary concepts of postmodernity, poststructuralism and deconstruction to the practice of biblical exegesis. One important conclusion is that deconstruction affects both diachronic and synchronic approaches of texts. The four chapters of the second part apply this strategy of reading to the Fourth Gospel as a whole (chapter five), to John 6 (chapter six), to John 17 (chapter seven) and to John 21,24-25 (chapter eight). This deconstructive reading shows the differential and apophatic character of Saint John's Gospel. CONTENTS Achilles and the Tortoise: untraceable meanings Expressibility versus inexpressibility positions, questions, presuppositions Mysteries of the Fourth Gospel according to Rudolf Bultmann Diachronic perspective on the historical problem: the Johannine community Historical reconstructions Poststructural annotations to historical-critical and diachronic research Synchronic perspective on the exegetical-theological puzzle: the 'Sache' of John's Gospel Bultmann (postmodern) and Ashton (deconstructive) Revelation as transcendental signifier Narrative approaches to the second puzzle: 'reader-oriented exegesis' Culpepper's view of the 'implied author' Staley's 'victimisation of the reader' Synchronic research PART 1 1.
