What Does Eve Do to Help? And Other Readerly Questions to the Old Testament
£50.00
Readerly questions are raised when readers are explicitly and programmatically brought into the process of interpreting texts. Traditionally, the reader and readerly interest and identities have been screened out when we have set about interpreting texts, and we have set our sights on attaining an interpretation that should be as objective as possible.
Things are rather different now. Not only is quest for objective interpretation seen as chimaera, but the rewards of unabashed readerly interpretations that foreground the process of reading and the context of the reader have now been shown to be very well worth seeking. That reader-response approach characterizes this collection of six essays, prefaced by an introduction to reader-response criticism.
The essays for the most part read in their original form to meetings of the Society of Biblical Literature, are: What Does Eve Do To Help? and other Irredeemably Androcentric Orientations in Genesis 1-3; What Happens in Genesis; The Ancestor in Danger: But Not the Same Danger; The Old Testament Histories: A Reader's Guide; Deconstructing the Book of Job; and Nehemiah Memoir: The perils of Autobiography.
This volume is a reprint of the original 1990 edition.

Interested Parties: The Ideology of Writers and Readers of the Hebrew Bible
Price range: £17.50 through £50.00
There is a twin focus in this volume. The title of a keynote essay—‘Why Is There a Song of Songs, and What Does It Do to You If You Read It?’—hints at it. The focus is equally on the ideologies of the writers of the Hebrew Bible, who brought the text into being, and on the ideologies of its readers, who are being shaped by the text at the same moment that they are shaping it in their own image.
Uncovering the ideologies of writers are readers is the project of this book, calling for a step beyond the usual scholarly goal of understanding—to a practice of the art of critique.
Among the other chapters in this challenging book are:
• The Ten Commandments: Reading from Left to Right
• Metacommentating Amos
• Haggai’s Temple, Constructed, Deconstructed and Reconstructed
• David the Man: The Construction of Masculinity in the Hebrew Bible
• Psalm 2 and the MLF (Moabite Liberation Front)
• God in the Pentateuch: Reading against the Grain
This is a reprint of the original 1995 edition.
