Description

Refractions of the Scriptural: Critical Orientation as Transgression offers a deep look into how scriptures act as a site for scholarly investigation. Part of the Routledge Studies in Religion series, this transdisciplinary collection of essays moves beyond traditional views to treat scriptures as an analytical wedge used for excavation and problematization. The text examines the ways individual and social bodies interact with the politics and power found in language and formalized canonical knowledge. By looking at how these texts are used, the book explores their role in both social conservatism and social critique. It provides a framework for understanding scriptures as complex phenomena that drive social change. This volume is designed for researchers and students interested in the intersection of language, power, and religious studies. It provides a new way to approach religious texts not just as static documents, but as active forces that shape social structures and identities.
