Womanist/Feminist Biblical Interpretatio

Catalog description

Taught by SFTS. This Womanist-Feminist Biblical Interpretation course will use intersecting disciplines of ethical theory and literature as tools to construct various approaches to womanist and feminist biblical hermeneutics. As such, the class will require students to develop paradigms for understanding concepts of race, ethnicity, and gender as competing and intersecting realities both within the Bible and in its use and misuse in reader reception throughout history. This is a hybrid course with an online component that extends beyond the last day in the classroom. Class meets daily, 1/14/2019-1/18/2019, from 2:00p to 5:00pm at SFTS.
