Sobre IBD

Refractions of the Scriptural is a transdisciplinary collection of essays that seeks to construct a new field of scholarly inquiry with scriptures as a fraught category, analytical wedge, and site for excavation and problematization. The book focuses on the ways in which individual and social bodies manipulate-and are manipulated by- the politics and power encoded in language and formalized canonical knowledge.

In the modern world the word came to be associated almost exclusively with the center- and power-defining 'sacred' texts of 'world religions.' Wimbush argues that this narrowing of the valence of the term wa...
