TUPAMAHU, E., Contesting Languages. Heteroglossia and the Politics of Language in the Early Church. Oxford University Press, 2022. 272p. Hardback. Deftly combining contemporary theory with Greco-Roman sources, Tupamahu gives us a compelling reading of 1 Corinthians. For Tupamahu, a language-then and now-can gain legitimacy not only by its power to persuade, but even more so through its position of priority over and above other languages. Demonstrating both the language of power and the power of language, Tupamahu's book points out the problem of monolingualism for a truly pluralistic practice.
