Black Feminist Hermeneutics: an essay of the interpretation of the Song of Songs 1.5-6

It is aimed to interpret the Song of Solomon 1.5-6 on the basis of the Black Feminist Hermenutics. In this interpretation exercice , that favour the black woman experience marked by sexism, racism and classism, it is intended to rescue the text from its western unilateral interpretation. It is shown through translation of this text that it has been conditioned by the ethnocentrism and the interpretations are based on the Eurocentrism, making the Afro-Asiatic influence unfeasible in the Israelites formation and understanding.
