About this product

Product Information

The place of religion within a secular society has been much discussed in recent years, fueled in part by Charles Taylor's Secular Age (2007). The conversation surrounding Taylor's work suggests a widespread interest in religion in secular or post-secular contexts. Even as scholars have become increasingly interested in emerging and novel forms of religion, prophecy has continued to be depicted in traditional forms employed to further partisan agendas. In place of secularity as religious declension and culture clash, this volume explores prophetic works in a variety of forms, including satire, tragedy, the novel, Native American tradition, science fiction, the Bible, and higher education itself. Together the contributors demonstrate that there is much to learn from both religious and secular prophecy. The book is inspired by the idea that prophetic works are a promising subject area for a diverse audience in both higher education and the church. The volume's contributors demonstrate as much in that they work in a wide range of disciplines, including religious studies, biblical studies, theology, American studies, literature, philosophy, and political theory.

Reviews
"The United States is uniquely attuned to the prophets of the Hebrew Bible and their passion for justice and social empathy. Even in our secular age, the fascinating articles in this book demonstrate that the voice of the prophets still rings loud and clear in our country. Want to lift your spirits? Read this book!" --Susannah Heschel, Eli M. Black Distinguished Professor of Jewish Studies, Dartmouth College "The need for some kind of prophetic word is as acute as it has ever been. But the ground has shifted beneath would-be prophets' feet. This interdisciplinary volume analyzes those shifts, considering prophets from Moses and Jeremiah to Fanny Lou Hamer, Samuel Delaney, and Jon Stewart. But the essays in this book do not just describe prophecy. Especially as they work together, they perform a richly plural prophecy from and for a secular age." --Ted A. Smith, Professor of Preaching and Ethics, Candler School of Theology, Emory University
