This new resource from Stephen D. Moore applies nonhuman critical theory to the biblical texts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Acts. Nonhuman theory is a confluence of several of the main theoretical streams that have issued forth since the heyday of high poststructuralism, including affect theory, posthuman animality studies, critical plant studies, object-oriented new materialisms, and assemblage theory. Nonhuman theory dismantles and reassembles the Western concept of the human that coalesced during the Enlightenment and testifies to other conceptions of the human and of the nonhuman, not least those found in the New Testament gospels and Acts. Exegetical explorations and defamiliarizations of these overly familiar texts open new paths in biblical ecotheology and ecocriticism for scholars and students of the Bible, literary criticism, and cultural studies.
