| Sommario/riassunto: | "Lily Fetalsana-Apura uses contextual hermeneutics to offer an alternative interpretation of Joshua 1:1-9 that counters and resists historical-critical and theological readings legitimizing Western conquests and imperialism. After outlining exegetical and hermeneutical procedures for contextual interpretation, she reads the Former Prophets in the context of four hundred years of colonial victimization and a continuing struggle against neocolonialism by marginalized and exploited communities such as those in the Philippines. She argues that Joshua 1:1-9 exhorts strength and courage against exploitation and domination by empire. Her work identifies themes and concepts in the Deuteronomistic History that subvert imperial ideology and that can serve as a model for other work in contextual hermeneutics of biblical texts"--Back cover. |
