9789058540195: Autobiographical Biblical Criticism: Between Text and Self

Synopsis

The autobiographical turn in biblical criticism reveals the interpreter's I and reclaims it as an essential critical category, issuing a challenge to traditional, âobjectiveâ criticism. Pioneers in the field have contributed essays both practical and theoretical. They offer stimulating autobiographical re-readings of Hebrew Bible and New Testament texts, and address hermeneutical issues that are at stake in this young field of criticism.
