Joshua Postcolonial

该项目旨在对《约书亚记》中关于征服和定居的圣经叙事进行历史批判分析，该分析由后殖民理论发展的分析类别提供信息。这个项目的目的并不是要以语境神学的方式再现这本书的后殖民时代风格（当然，这是一项有价值的事业）。相反，它试图通过那些后殖民观点来丰富历史批评的范围和方法，从而使其能够富有成效地融入历史批评方法。要获得的工作计划将被应用于约书亚书的整体，而不是目前的研究状态，其中只考虑了几个孤立的章节。

This project aims at an historical-critical analysis of the biblical narrative of conquest and settlement found in the book of Joshua which is informed by analytical categories developed in postcolonial theory. The project does not aim at a postcolonial relecture of the book in the fashion of contextual theologies (a worthwhile enterprise to be sure). Rather, it seeks to enrich the scope and method of historical criticism by those postcolonial perspectives which allow to be fruitfully integrated into an historical-critical approach. The work program to be gained will be applied to the book of Joshua in its entirety, as opposed to the present state of research in which only a few isolated episodes are considered.
