Expanding Approaches to Bible Translation

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Despite the accelerating advances in translation studies, Bible translation has been relatively stuck in a linguistic conceptualization of what the Bible is and how it should be translated across cultures. This book is ground-breaking in its attempt to challenge narrow perspectives on Bible translation, using recent developments in translation studies, multimodality, semiotics, and biblical performance criticism. Maxey has successfully brought ten contributors with unique academic and professional backgrounds to pose key questions about experiencing the materiality of Bible translation. This is a must-read for scholars, Bible translators and anyone passionate about Bible engagement in different modalities.”
