Synopsis

These essays represent key issues in feminist theology and the feminist religious movement—milestones in the attempts of Christian feminists to reclain their spiritual authority, define biblical religion and the Christian church, and to articulate a feminist religious vision of justice and liberation.

About this title

From Library Journal:

In commemoration of the tenth anniversary of her book In Memory of Her (Crossroad, 1984), Fiorenza presents a collection of superb essays, which, as she says in the introduction, also serve to document the history of feminist theology. These essays articulate a vision of spiritual liberation and authority for Christian women. Each is introduced with a "contextualization" that tells the reader the circumstances of the first presentation and of the evolution of thought in the intervening years. Why would a feminist stay in the church? Why would a feminist baptize her daughter in the patriarchal church? Fiorenza here answers these questions with scholarship, reflection, and compassion. Recommended without reservation for collections in women's studies, religious studies, and sociology.
