Islands, Islanders, and the Bible: Ruminations

Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Publisher Marketing: In this collection of sixteen essays, the authors-islanders who are rooted in Asia, America, the Caribbean, Europe, and Oceania-focus on contextual, cultural, and postcolonial criticisms. Each essay invites a conversation on how being islanders, and the various ruminations of islandedness, condition the way islanders read biblical texts. Contributor Bio:  Aymer, Margaret Margaret P. Aymer is Assistant Professor of New Testament at the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
