Beschreibung
Since 2004, Joachim Kuegler has intentionally focused on promoting and accompanying Biblical Studies in Africa, beginning with a focus on Zimbabwe’s budding biblical scholars that he mentored. Over the years, the work of Joachim has spread to include Cameroon, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Botswana, South Africa, Kenya, Namibia and Nigeria. Not only did Joachim do the one mile, he went the extra mile in his embrace and support of Biblical Studies in Africa. This volume is a reflection on Biblical Studies in Africa and a celebration of the immense contributions of Joachim Kuegler to this field. The launch of the Bible in Africa Studies (BiAS) Series in 2009 remains one of his greatest contributions, giving visibility and voice to scholars that would have struggled to get one and bringing on board renowned African Biblical scholars whose presence established BiAS as a credible player in Biblical Studies in Africa and beyond. In this volume, only a small number of scholars reflect on Biblical Studies in Africa, while others reflect directly on Joachim’s contributions. This volume is a festschrift in honour of Joachim as he retires from active academic service with the University of Bamberg in July 2024.
