Christian World Imprints Human Sexuality In The Song Of Songs A Study On The Sensual Lyrics Of The Songs-Hardbound by Wungtei Buchem
This book HUMAN SEXUALITY IN THE SONG OF SONGS: A Study on the Sensual Lyrics of the Songs written by my Christian friend Dr. Wungtei Buchem (University of Sheffield UK), is a timely book that deals with the literal interpretation of the Song of Songs. The author perfectly analyses these beautiful lyrics of the Songs in this piece of work which I as a practising Catholic finds useful and so is what I am sure be a guidebook for modern day interpreters irrespective of Christian denominations. Dr. Buchem links the main message of the text with a positive view of human sexuality and defends- it cannot be treated as something apart from the spirit but of the human nature which comprehends body and soul. This topic is of great importance in a modern day church, society and culture where sexuality is sometimes treated as a product that can utilized without any personal consequences. Within this piece of work, the author encourages readers to think thoroughly about the importance of integrating sexuality in ourselves as God’s own creatures.
