Description

Scripturalizing the Human: The Written as the Political offers a transdisciplinary collection of essays designed to redefine scriptural studies. As part of the Routledge Studies in Religion series, this work provides a critical and comparative framework for scholars working in religion and biblical studies. This project moves beyond traditional views by examining scriptures, scripturalization, and scripturalizing as methods to understand the psycho-cultural and socio-political work language performs. By analyzing how language functions for and upon individuals and societies, the text provides a new way to approach religious texts. Each essay explores specific instances of this linguistic work, engaging with diverse texts including the Bible, the Book of Mormon, and the Bhagavata Purana. This collection serves as a vital resource for those interested in the historical and ethnographic dimensions of how written texts shape human identity and political structures.
