Beskrivning
What does it mean to be a prophet in queer times? Considering first the queerness of the prophet Jonah, this volume then broadens its scope to the queer prophetic in our own time, reflecting on what makes a prophet ‘queer’, and considering how public theology is itself, an example of the queer prophetic. With a broad range of international contributors, this book offers a bold and essential new addition to queer biblical studies literature.

Recensioner i media

"Queering the Prophet is a genuinely intersectional, international, interdisciplinary and interreligious book. The prophetic figure of Jonah is shown to be queer in multitudinous ways, and is portrayed here as guiding star for other prophets negotiating their social, cultural, political and religious worlds in queer times. The voices of established and emerging scholars highlight the prophetic nature of much activist work in Africa, Europe, North America and Oceania."
