Review of Reading with a Passion : Rhetoric, Autobiography, and the American West in the Gospel of John

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

What do Winnie the Pooh, the American West, the Gospel of John, reader response, social-scientific, feminist, and autobiographical criticisms, the novels of Tony Hillerman, and Navajo dogs have in common? They are all combusting within the brilliant imaginative world Jeffrey Staley inhabits. And they are incorporated into a book that is, as rock climbers or river rafters would say, "beyond category". That is good news for anyone interested in this Gospel or in the possible future NT scholarship.
