Marxism and Biblical Studies","description":"In \u003ci\u003eApostles of Revolution? Marxism and Biblical Studies\u003c\/i\u003e Christina Petterson sheds light on the collaboration between Biblical studies and liberal ideology. Marxist analysis of the bible is spreading, but clarity about what constitutes Marxist readings and Marxist categories of analysis is lacking - a lack of clarity compounded by the different strands within Marxist politics, and its subtle resonances in biblical scholarship. The author examines the interplay between Biblical studies and liberal ideology in two ways. First, by presenting and discussing some of the central Marxist categories of analysis, namely history, ideology and class, and how these categories have been co-opted into biblical studies and in the process lost their radical edge. Second, by discussing the emergence of the discipline of biblical studies during the Enlightenment, and to what extent the containment strategies of biblical studies overlap with those of capitalism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christina Petterson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004432183\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004432185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.10w x 0.21d","brand":"Christina Petterson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437392605439,"sku":"9789004432185","price":94.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1e4cf8f2-732c-46a0-9b06-0f03a8413727.jpg?v=1777161507","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/apostles-of-revolution-marxism-and-christina-petterson-9789004432185","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
