| Description: |
Many assume that tumultuous debate in the last decades of the twentieth century left women with a clear-cut choice - either faith or feminism. The essays in this collection suggest otherwise; women continue to feel at once drawn to and rejected by traditional religions. The volume is remarkable for emphasising both Christian and Jewish feminist writings in theology. Contributors include an Orthodox nun, a Jewish novelist, an African New Testament scholar, and aQuaker systematic theologian. An introduction by Janet Martin Soskice maps out the historical, global and religious diversity of the vibrant field of feminist study. |
| Synopsis: |
Christianity and Judaism have inspired reflective theology for thousands of years but until recently, little of it was written by women. Feminism not only proposes new answers to the questions, but compels a reevaluation as to the questions themselves. The essays in this volume represent the richnes of feminist writings in theology, an area that commands international interest, inside and outside the academy, and addresses aspects of theological study including biblical interpretation, historical approaches, doctrine philosophy of religion and ethics. This book brings together some of the best essays in the field, with an introduction by Janet Martin Soskice mapping the historical, global and doctrinal contributions to theology.The essys are arranged thematically, and an introduction mapping the area is enhanced by general remarks on each theme and specific comments on individual contributions. This book seeks to engage readers new to the field as well as professionals. The collection emphasises the importance of grass roots contributions alongside academic work. |
