Sex and the Bible Paper #4 (1500 word minimum – due on Blackboard, Friday, April 22) Pick ONE of the following questions and answer in 1500 words (post word count at end of paper). Your paper should provide a clear and well-reasoned argument. Regardless of which question you choose, make sure to use detailed and specific examples from the text(s) to support your analysis.
3) Analyze the ways in which Tim and Beverly LaHaye in The Act of Marriage construct
“the act of marriage” in relation to the texts they cite from the Bible. What
interpretive and rhetorical strategies are the authors using and what kinds of
authority do they appeal to? Make sure that you make use of DeRogatis’ book in
developing your analysis. You may also find it useful to engage with Foucault in
crafting your argument.
