Even amid these shadows, Brueggemann still emboldens us to endure and even to overcome these troubles, not merely by the tenacity of blues lamentation and the transcendence of gospel communion, but also by prophetic improvisations that jazz the song of Joshua and crumble the walls thrown up by the politics of domination.”  \n—William J. Barber II,  \nauthor of The Third Reconstruction  \n“Few authors have influenced my spiritual formation more than Walter Brueggemann, and few books more than The Prophetic Imagination. Brueggemann is one of the greatest theologians we have alive today. If you have not read this book, please do. If you have read it before, read it again. The Prophetic Imagination is precisely what the church needs right now.”  \n—Shane Claiborne, activist and author of Executing Grace and Red Letter Revolution  \n“When I first read The Prophetic Imagination in college, it changed my life. Now, forty years after its initial publication, Brueggemann’s book remains as timely as ever, retaining all of its power, insight, and daring. This anniversary edition—beautifully introduced by Davis Hankins—ensures that this classic work is available to inspire another generation to resist the static triumphalism of Pharaoh (in countless contemporary incarnations), to criticize the dominant totalizing consciousness, and to energize the people of God in the face of profound grief.”  \n—Brent A. Strawn, Emory University  \n“Walter Brueggemann’s The Prophetic Imagination has drawn many a student, seminarian, preacher, and more than a few laypeople on the strength of the title alone, resonant with much of black preaching where the‘sanctified imagination’ is regularly engaged. This text has guided generations of biblical interpreters to take the prophetic encounter and vocation as more than protest or religiopolitical disagreement in and beyond the text. The book remains relevant—eminently readable and teachable.”  \n—Wil Gafney, Brite Divinity School  \n“At a time when tradition seems to have become the property of the status quo, this book is more relevant than ever. As tradition shifts sides, it becomes subversive of the dominant religious, political, and economic developments, and so new energies are set free that push toward liberation. While this has been going on for thousands of years, the increasing challenges ofthe past  \nforty years since this book was written—threatening to destroy both humanity and the planet—underscore its ongoing importance.”  \n—Joerg Rieger, Vanderbilt University  \n“Essential reading for generations of scholars and pastors, The Prophetic Imagination has been catalytic for those yearning to understand biblical prophecy and strengthen their own prophetic witness. Over against the hopelessness generated by repressive ideology, Brueggemann insists that we can choose as the prophets did: neither denial nor acquiescence, but visionary resistance. Brueggemann presses a brilliant case for prophetic imagination as the only choice that will not leave us co-opted by the relentless manipulations of empire.”  \n—Carolyn J. Sharp, Yale Divinity School  \n“Walter Brueggemann’s The Prophetic Imagination is timeless; yet, at the same time, it feels as if he wrote it ‘for such a time as this.’ The convicting yet hopeful voice of Brueggemann is much like the prophets he writes of from the Hebr","cbCaisWw86RspdsK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisWw86RspdsK","pdf",2571502,200,"English","# Praise for The Prophetic Imagination, 40th Anniversary Edition\n## Statements by authors and scholars","[{\"question\":\"What is the central focus highlighted in the praise for this edition?\",\"answer\":\"The praise emphasizes the role of prophetic imagination in faithful ministry, including resistance to dominant consciousness and the engagement between prophetic and pastoral responsibilities.\"},{\"question\":\"Who wrote the foreword in this 40th Anniversary Edition?\",\"answer\":\"Davis Hankins wrote the foreword.\"},{\"question\":\"What publication details are included in the provided text?\",\"answer\":\"The text includes copyright information, permissions contact, translated biblical quotations note, cover and frontispiece credits, print and eBook ISBNs, and paper and manufacturing statements.\"}]","The Prophetic Imagination - 40th Anniversary Edition - Foreword and Publisher Credits | PDF",1789949427,504]
