Alan Brady over at Café Apocalypsis has a nice summary of parts of Dr. Ian Paul’s article “” in Studies in the Book of Revelation, ed. S. Moyse (see here) and some methodological reflections on the interpretation of metaphors.
Ian Paul’s essay is based on his Ph.D.-dissertation, “The Value of Paul Ricoeur’s Hermeneutic of Metaphor in the Interpretation of the Symbolism of Revelation 12 and 13″. According to Paul’s web pages (here and, especially, here), he is preparing a revised edition for publication by Paternoster.
