"Focusing on writers who approach the Bible as a source that is both instructive and dangerous, Subverting Scriptures seeks to provide an academic analysis of cultural biblical saturation at a time when measured voices are necessary to counterbalance politically motivated religious rheteoric. Using as its point of departure the current political landscape--where the Bible is drawn on freely and unabashedly without critical reflection to legitimate and justify all manner of agendas--the contributors in this collection engage the Bible in new, imaginative, and critical ways, in the hopes of creating a new space for dialogue." -- back cover.
