Description
Biblical Animality after Jacques Derrida challenges traditional views of humans and animals in the Bible. Hannah M. Strømmen critiques the boundary between humans and animals through the work of philosopher Jacques Derrida, highlighting ambiguous moments where the divine, human, and animal intersect. Strømmen's examination of Derrida's work on the human/animal boundary offers a new perspective on biblical texts such as Genesis 9 and Revelation's beasts. This book contributes to research on Jacques Derrida and deconstruction, while engaging critically with the Bible's role in anthropocentrism.
