Hardback. Condizione: New. Tribal biblical interpretation is a developing area of study that is concerned with reading the Bible through the eyes of tribal people. While many studies of reading the Bible from the reader's social, cultural and historical location have been made in various parts of the world, no thorough study that offers a coherent and substantive methodology for tribal biblical interpretation has been made. This book is the first comprehensive work that offers a description of tribal biblical interpretation and shows its application by making a lucid reading of Matthew's infancy narrative from a tribal reader's perspective. Using reader-response criticism as his primary method, Zhodi Angami brings his tribal context of North East India into conversation with Matthew's account of the birth of Jesus. Since tribal people of North East India see themselves as living under colonial rule, a tribal reader sees Matthew's text as a narrative that actively resists and subverts imperial rule. Likewise, the tribal experience of living at the margins inspires a tribal reader to look at the narrative from the underside, from the perspective of those who are sidelined, ignored, belittled or forgotten. Tribal biblical interpretation presented here follows a process of conversation between tribal worldview and Matthew's narrative. Such a method animates the text for the tribal reader and makes the biblical narrative not only more intelligible to the tribal reader but allows the text to speak directly to the tribal context.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. This book provides analysis of a variety of biblical narratives and texts which are the vehicle for the expression, articulation and performance of diverse identities in the Indian context. From pan Indian social problems attributable to caste, class and gender inequality, to specific North Eastern tribal settings, to Dalit struggles in rural Andhra Pradesh, to the experience of Christian autorickshaw drivers in urban Chennai, the book explores the diverse geographical, cultural, social, economic and linguistic settings in which the Bible is encountered. A holistic approach to Biblical studies broadens the fieldbeyond textual exegesis. Encounters with the Bible are revealed in diverse chaptersimpacted by contexts of caste realities, the history of Indian Christianity, colonial and post-colonial frameworks, educational institutions, cultural, folk tale, literary and auto/biographical narratives in tribal and Dalit settings. Diversity of method is championed including sociological analysis of Indian social realities, qualitative field work techniques and a kaleidoscope of visual and sensory environments with over 30 photographs. The book celebrates and promotes diversity in Indian biblical studies, creativity and sometimes conflicting perspectivesthe Bible is an open book and interpretation cannot be prematurely closed off and fixed.
