The postmodern Bible reader

"A range of powerful contemporary engagements with the Bible by literary critics, philosophers, writers, and activists is brought together for the first time in this Reader. The twenty texts anthologized allow students to explore and interrogate different ways of making the Bible part of the "postmodern" world. The selection is based on the editors' experience of which texts best engage students and stimulate discussion in the classroom."--Page 4 of cover.
