A brief introduction to the scholarly methodology known as "poststructuralism," with focus on the importance of the materiality of the signifier and how that materiality both plays a part in and disrupts the construction of meaning. Special attention is given to the interests of biblical scholars. Poststructuralism is presented as a methodology that questions and challenges the meanings that readers assign to biblical (and other) texts.
