Prophetic Futures (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Bowling, Joseph; Walker, Katherine

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book is based on the postmedieval journal special issue Prophetic Futures. It calls for renewed attention to prophecy and temporality, challenging in the process critical lenses that adhere to strict dualities of medieval/modern, superstitious/rationalized, and other problematic dyads that occlude our understanding of vatic language. The language, texts, and bodies of prophecy challenge commonplaces about a disenchanted modernity and point the way to new critical approaches to texts out of time.

Previously published in postmedieval Volume 10, issue 1, March 2019.
