Full Description
This book applies the textual theory of American Marxist Fredric Jameson for a critical reading of the book of prophet Haggai. It attempts to show that the text has a greater function where it not only represents the tensions of the past but attempts to resolve the issues on an imaginary level - this is a unique feature of Jameson's theory. Furthermore, the book also argues that the contradictions and conflicts in the text - at the historical level - occur amongst the golah community, specifically amongst its leaders.
The book commences with a discussion of Fredric Jameson's textual theory and its importance within the realm of Marxist discussion. This is followed by an engagement between the author and the Jamesonian method to shape the methodology in which the work will follow. The main content of the book is the appropriation of the three-tier method to critically read the book of the prophet Haggai. The book will then conclude by discussing its conclusions within the realms of Marxism, the prophet Haggai and island hermeneutics.
