Lee is currently writing a commentary on the Song of Songs and Lamentations (forthcoming, Smyth & Helwys) and is the author of articles, poetry, and books, including The Singers of Lamentations: Cities under Siege, from Ur to Jerusalem to Sarajevo . . . (Brill, 2002). This was a comparative study of the biblical book of Lamentations to lament poems from a recent context--the focus of a Fulbright fellowship in Croatia (and Bosnia-Herzegovinia) the year after the wars there ended in the 1990s. She edited a volume of war poetry in English by Borislav Arapović, Between Despair and Lamentation (2002). Founding co-chair of the Lament in Sacred Texts & Cultures group of the Society of Biblical Literature, she co-edited the volume, Lamentations in Ancient & Contemporary Contexts (SBL, 2008), a collection from scholars worldwide. Her book, Lyrics of Lament: From Tragedy to Transformation (Fortress, 2010), is for a more general audience and surveys lament in poetry and popular song in 30 cultures worldwide while examining forms of lament in the sacred texts of the Abrahamic religions (Hebrew Bible, New Testament, Qur'an). Lee has regularly co-led student groups to South Africa with partners there in service-learning projects for 15 years. She was Founding Director of the Niebuhr Center at Elmhurst College (where the Niebuhrs were undergrads) and its 'Callings for the Common Good' program. ...more
