The Bible and Critical Theory
ISSN : 1832-3391

he Bible & Critical Theory is
an exploratory and innovative online scholarly journal. The journal
explores the intersections between critical theory, understood in the
broadest sense, and biblical studies. It publishes peer-reviewed
articles that look at critical theory and biblical studies from a wide
range of perspectives. We particularly welcome article submissions (or
special issue ideas) that consider biblical studies from perspectives
that are often marginalized, silenced, or elided within traditional
biblical scholarship. Creative approaches are also welcome.
The journal has an active series of book reviews, which are published with each issue.
BCT content is available freely on an open-access
(non-commercial) basis. It is also aggregated by the Directory of Open
Access Journals (DOAJ) and full -text access is available on the fabulous American Theological Library Association (ATLA) Religion Database.
