Love in the Time of Tyranny offers a new perspective on the Song of Songs. While the Song of Songs is one of the most popular poems in the Western Canon, its enigmatic quality has made it extremely difficult to interpret. It survived through an allegorical understanding in religious circles; modern academic interpretation has rendered it into a secular love song. Love in the Time of Tyranny rejects both these explanations and argues that the role which King Solomon plays has been overlooked or downplayed for too long. Love in the Time of Tyranny puts the figure of King Solomon back at the heart of the Song of Songs and, in so doing, sheds entirely new light on a remarkable work.
