Abraham Cheong explores different possibilities for the meaning of \u003ci\u003eThe Steward\u003c\/i\u003e parable (Luke 16:1-9), adopting a system of M. Bakhtin's dialogic scheme, a literary carnivalization. Cheong breaks new ground by clearly demonstrating individual performance on the hermeneutic of the Gospel parables. He characterizes the steward's debt reduction by a constant dialogue with other narrative features, ancient repertoire, and reader-response now engaging scholarly interest. In this way, multiple voices of the steward's act are highlighted: a movement to the lower realm, provoking senses of redistribution, relocation, and reconciliation. This book sharpens the understanding of \u003ci\u003eThe Steward\u003c\/i\u003e parable in relation to other disciplines both in theory and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hemchand Gossai,C-S Abraham Cheong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820450022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820450025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/08\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 239\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2001 pg. 15","brand":"Hemchand Gossai","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48448992903423,"sku":"9780820450025","price":63.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cf64e1cd-4935-47ed-9831-f589102f30e4.jpg?v=1777261476","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-dialogic-reading-of-the-hemchand-gossai-9780820450025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
