Cascade Library of Pauline Studies - Bogserien

Series Description:

The aim of the series is to advance Pauline theology by publishing monographs that make original scholarly proposals in conversation with existing scholarly debates, and which have the potential to shape future trajectories in research.

As both the title of the series and the list of categories above suggests, it is their contribution to critical discussion of Pauline theology that will be the hallmark of books published in CLPS. However, the nature and scope of Pauline theology is intended to be understood in a somewhat expansive manner, with an openness to the use of methodologies (e.g., social-scientific or post-colonial approaches) that have sometimes been regarded as standing in opposition to theological modes of Pauline interpretation. The criterion by which the suitability of a study for inclusion in the series will be assessed is its theological interest. This judgment will be made on the basis of the potential benefits of a particular approach or methodology for our understanding of Pauline theology rather than on the basis of conformity to preconceived ideas of what constitutes an appropriately theological approach to Pauline interpretation. As such, CLPS will also be open both to studies that are broadly confessional in tone and to those that are more critical of perspectives expressed in the Pauline texts.
