Description

Explore a fresh perspective on biblical interpretation with Experiencing the Apocalypse at the Limits of Alterity. This scholarly work by Hongisto applies narrative criticism to the study of the Apocalypse, focusing on the oral nature of the text and the specific roles of readers and listeners. This book examines how meaning is created when an audience encounters the narrative. By looking at how readers and listeners participate in the design of the story, Hongisto demonstrates how individuals become constructors of the narrative through their own life experiences. The text explores how the overarching reading context helps create a sense of narrativity. Ideal for students and scholars of religion and spirituality, this volume provides a deep look into the relationship between the text and its audience. It offers a unique way to understand how the form of the Apocalypse functions within a communicative context.
