The book of Revelation or Apocalypse of John has generated wide interest in the academy and popular culture. Its evocative imagery has engaged the imaginations of biblical interpreters, historians, and artists. The cultural impact of the book has been profound; it has inspired musical compositions such as Handels Hallelujah chorus, and fueled sensationalistic theories about the imminent end of the world. Some are intrigued by Revelations kaleidoscopic visions, which culminate in a new heaven and a new earth; others are repelled by the violent scenes of cosmic conflict.
The chapters of this volume reflect a wide spectrum of approaches that are used to interpret the book and assess its influence. Recent studies have considered Revelations literary qualities and rhetorical force, theological perspectives, and relationship to social patterns in early Christianity. Reception history, cultural studies, and feminist and postcolonial interpretation all play a role. The contributors orient readers to the many interpretive possibilities, and provide their own distinctive contributions to current research.
I am grateful to Steve Wiggins of Oxford University Press for initiating development of this volume, and to the staff at the press for their careful work throughout the process.
