In Children and Methods: Listening To and Learning From Children in the Biblical World, Kristine Henriksen Garroway and John W. Martens bring together an interdisciplinary collection of essays addressing children in the Hebrew Bible, New Testament, and broader ancient world. While the study of children has been on the rise in a number of fields, the methodologies by which we listen to and learn from children in ancient Judaism and Christianity have not been critically examined. This collection of essays proposes that while the various lenses of established methods of higher criticism offer insight into the lives of children, by filtering these methods through the new field of Childist Criticism, children can be heard and seen in a new light. Editorial Reviews Review "With its presentation of various methodologies, the volume provides an introduction to the field of biblical childhood studies. It is valuable for scholars who are not yet acquainted with the field, but also for established scholars who wish to expand their methodological repertoire." - Albertina Oegema, Protestant Theological University, in NTT Journal for Theology and the Study of Religion Vol. 76, no. 1, 2022.
