http://www.iskcon.com/icj/8_2/k_lila.html

In this article Krsna-lila Dasi examines methods of scriptural interpretation. She looks at the validity of modern literary theory in relation to literatures that are held as items of faith and describes the strengths and weaknesses of this approach. Krsna-lila finds that in the Vaisnava tradition a student of scripture can retain scholarly integrity without appearing to diminish the spiritual value of such works.
