Intersectional Studies of Jewish, Christian and Islamic Texts and Receptions


About the Series

Intersectional Studies of Jewish, Christian, and Islamic Texts and Receptions draws together the growing amount of scholarship where texts from the three traditions are read with intersectional perspectives. The aim is to create a critical and cutting-edge space for studies that employ different intersecting perspectives (gender, class, race, ethnicity, sexuality, age, disability, etc.), in their approaches to texts and receptions.

The series covers both in depth readings of one tradition with intersectionality, or different texts and receptions in comparative analysis; and also theoretical or methodological studies, with cases from the three texts traditions and their receptions. It gives due attention not only to ancient texts that are central to religious communities today, but also non-canonical material, and the variety, tension, and diversity to be found in sources and interpretations. It welcomes monographs as well as edited collections.
