Description
Studies of how Scriptural narratives and their themes have been "re-Scriptured" in particular works of Western literary tradition. Chapter 3 (pp. 77-100) explores how NPT prompts and resists the exegetical potential in reading and leads to fundamental indeterminacy. Chauntecleer's rewriting of Scripture questions whether meaning is possible.
