Cathleen Kaveny reframes the debate about religion in the public square by focusing on a powerful stream of religious discourse in American political speech: the Biblical rhetoric of prophetic indictment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Important and path-breaking. The place of religious discourse in the American public square has received much attention for many years, but the role of prophetic indictment has been largely overlooked. Kaveny's book not only opens a 'new front' in these debates, but starts the conversation with a rich analysis of the history and function of prophetic discourse.\"\u003cbr\u003e--Kathleen A. Brady, \u003ci\u003eCommonweal\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"A monumental achievement, and a much-needed addition to the academic and societal conversation about the role of religion in public life. In precise prose and with careful analysis, Kaveny challenges some of the leading theorists about public discourse and puts forward her own theories, all accompanied by a storyteller's gift for anecdote and a philosopher's talent for explication.\"\u003cbr\u003e--Michael Sean Winters, \u003ci\u003eNational Catholic Reporter\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cathleen Kaveny\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.10w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674986879\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKaveny, Cathleen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Cathleen Kaveny is Darald and Juliet Libby Professor of Law and Theology at Boston College.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harvard University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43750545621107,"sku":"9.78067E+12","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_92c45789-402e-4649-996f-a0f16178ac29.jpg?v=1756465138","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/prophecy-without-contempt-religious-discourse-in-the-public-square-9780674986879","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
