Notes

Originally presented as the author's thesis (PhD, University of Sheffield, 2021) under the title: Gender diversity in the ancestral narratives : encountering Sarah & Esau through a hermeneutics of cispicion

Summary: "Jo Henderson-Merrygold challenges cisnormative presuppositions that shape and, at times, occlude the variations in gender and sex exhibited by key characters in the ancestral narrative of Genesis 12-50. It charts the progression from Paul Ricoeur's hermeneutics of suspicion, through liberation, feminist and queer approaches. Focusing on Deryn Guest's queer and trans hermeneutics, Henderson-Merrygold then offers a new strategy for reading against fixed, binary gender assumptions, where a character's sex always matches that assigned at birth"--Provided by publisher
