The book of Revelation is at once the New Testament's most notable example of anti-imperial resistance literature, its most sex-preoccupied text, and its most ecologically pertinent text. As such, Revelation has been a magnet for empire-critical and postcolonial, feminist and queer, and ecotheological and ecocritical interpretations. Untold Tales from the Book of Revelation is a collection of previously published critical and postcritical essays that brings these and other contemporary critical lenses to bear on Revelation's apocalyptic opacities and ethical conundrums. In the process, Revelation is provocatively resituated in its world(s) and ours, and the strangest of biblical books becomes even stranger. This companion to The Bible in Theory: Critical and Postcritical Essays includes a substantial introduction that maps the methodological diversification of scholarship on Revelation during the past twenty-five years.
