"Telling Terror in Judges 19 explores the value of performing a 'reparative reading'
of the terror-filled story of the Levite's pilegesh (commonly referred to as the Levite's
concubine) in Judges 19, and how such a reparative reading can be brought to bear
upon elements of modern rape culture. Historically, the story has been used as a morality
tale to warn young women about what constitutes appropriate behaviour. More recently,
(mainly male) commentators have tended to write the woman out of the story, by making
claims about its purpose and theme which bear no relation to her suffering. In response
to this, feminist critics have attempted to write the woman back into the story, generally
using the hermeneutics of suspicion. This book begins by surveying some of the traditional
commentators, and the three great feminist commentators of the text (Bal, Exum and
Trible). It then offers a reparative reading by attending to the pilegesh's surprising
prominence, her moral and marital agency, and her speaking voice. In the final chapter,
there is a detailed comparison of the story with elements of modern rape culture"
