Stephen D. Moore (Author)
“Poststructuralism would be historical criticism’s id, the sat of its strongest anti-authoritarian instincts.”
–from the Conclusion
“Stephen D. Moore is the leading practitioner of deconstruction in the field of biblical studies today.”
–J. Cheryl Exum,

With typical wit and jargon-free clarity: Stephen D. Moore guides us through the maze of concepts and projects that constitute the multidisciplinary phenomenon of post-structuralism. Moore centers on two lengthy exegetical examples – a Derridean reading of John and his interpreters and a Foucauldian reading of Paul and his. The book also deals with deconstruction’s relationship to Theology and its relationship to biblical scholarship old and new – historical critical, narrative critical, and feminist. All who want to know what the fuss is about will owe Moore a debt of gratitude for this book.
