Subversive Meals
Author: R. Alan Streett
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1621897567
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Subversive Meals examines the Lord's Supper within the sociopolitical context of first-century Roman domination, and concludes that it was an anti-imperial praxis. Although the Christian communal meal looked much like a typical Roman banquet in structure, with a deipnon and a symposion, it was essentially different. The Roman meal supported the empire's ideology, honored Caesar and the gods, reinforced stratification among the masses, and upheld Rome's right to rule the world. The Christian meal, on the other hand, included hymns that extolled Jesus as Lord, prophecies that challenged Rome's ideological claims, and letters--read aloud--that promoted egalitarianism and instructed believers on how to live according to kingdom of God principles. Hence, the Christian banquet was an act of nonviolent resistance, or what James C. Scott calls a "hidden transcript."

Eating Identities
Author: Wenying Xu
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 0824878434
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
The French epicure and gastronome Brillat-Savarin declared, "Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you who you are." Wenying Xu infuses this notion with cultural-political energy by extending it to an ethnic group known for its cuisines: Asian Americans. She begins with the general argument that eating is a means of becoming—not simply in the sense of nourishment but more importantly of what we choose to eat, what we can afford to eat, what we secretly crave but are ashamed to eat in front of others, and how we eat. Food, as the most significant medium of traffic between the inside and outside of our bodies, organizes, signifies, and legitimates our sense of self and distinguishes us from others, who practice different foodways. Narrowing her scope, Xu reveals how cooking, eating, and food fashion Asian American identities in terms of race/ethnicity, gender, class, diaspora, and sexuality. She provides lucid and informed interpretations of seven Asian American writers (John Okada, Joy Kogawa, Frank Chin, Li-Young Lee, David Wong Louie, Mei Ng, and Monique Truong) and places these identity issues in the fascinating spaces of food, hunger, consumption, appetite, desire, and orality. Asian American literature abounds in culinary metaphors and references, but few scholars have made sense of them in a meaningful way. Most literary critics perceive alimentary references as narrative strategies or part of the background; Xu takes food as the central site of cultural and political struggles waged in the seemingly private domain of desire in the lives of Asian Americans. Eating Identities is the first book to link food to a wide range of Asian American concerns such as race and sexuality. Unlike most sociological studies, which center on empirical analyses of the relationship between food and society, it focuses on how food practices influence psychological and ontological formations and thus contributes significantly to the growing field of food studies. For students of literature, this tantalizing work offers an illuminating lesson on how to read the multivalent meanings of food and eating in literary texts.

Romans
Author: Jamie L. Perez
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595207693
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
As scholar and sage, filled with knowledge and zeal, Paul revolutionized Messianic Judaism. What had been limited primarily to Jews, Paul opened up the masses of uneducated and morally repulsive Gentiles. How could he Scripturally justify profaning God’s established religion in this way? How could he bring two completely opposite groups together? He did it by explaining the Hebrew Scriptures so that both groups could understand their role in it. This Bible study goes back to Paul’s source text, the Hebrew Scriptures, to explain his letter to the Roman Congregation. By placing ourselves in the Roman world, without a New Testament, where new religions are outlawed, and where Judaism is the only religion of the One True God, we rediscover a world we’ve long misunderstood. This exciting new study is designed to give the Bible student a thorough understanding of the Jewish theology behind Paul’s words. It reveals the one Scripture and one message that has been proclaimed since the beginning of time. Paul examined the hidden gems that Messiah uncovered in the Hebrew Scriptures—and now we can explore that treasure-chest with him.
