by A. K. M. Adam

Publisher:

Fortress Press

, 1995

Overview

“Postmodernism” is not simply one perspective, but a basketful of related critical assumptions. A. K. M. Adam prepares readers for wrestling with deconstruction, ideological criticism, postmodern feminism, “transgressive” postmodernism, and other postmodern approaches to biblical interpretation. He offers plain-language explanations and illustrative examples and shows how students can engage these approaches in their own postmodern biblical interpretation.
