Lectio difficilior "is the first European refereed journal for feminist exegesis, hermeneutics and related disciplines (classical philology, archeology, egyptology, studies of the ancient Near Middle East, ancient history, history of art, social sciences, psychology, e.a.); offers feminist scholars and all those interested in exegesis and theology: scholarly articles, a forum for discussion and work in progress, as well information about new publications; is cross-confessional. It covers biblical studies from a Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, but also Jewish, Muslim or any other feminist viewpoint; is interdisciplinary. Contributions from related disciplines are published when a link with exegesis or biblical hermeneutics is present; offers especially European feminist scholars the opportunity to publish their scholarly work quickly."
