What is Postmodern Biblical Criticism? (1995 Adam), book

What is Postmodern Biblical Criticism? (1995) is a book by A.K.M. Adam.

Abstract

""Postmodernism" is not simply one perspective but a basketful of related critical assumptions. A.K. M Adam prepares readers for wrestling with deconstruction, ideological criticism, postmodern feminism, "transgressive" postmodernism, and other postmodern approaches to biblical interpretation. He offers plain-language explanations and illustrative examples and shows how students might undertake their own postmodern biblical interpretation."--Publisher description.
