About this Item

Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Abnutzung / Risse - leicht. We sometimes seem to live in an age when answers, indeed the right answers, appear to dominate all areas of our lives and to our mind this is particularly tragic in the area of theology, a place that should be engaged in the most profound questioning rather than one that finds the answer and sticks to it. This wrestling with what we perceive to be the divine seems out of fashion. Even the ethical debates that rage within the churches about women, homosexuals, abortion, genetic engineering - the list is endless - appear at times to be conducted by two sides that have already made up their minds about the right answer. Deshalb macht es sich dieser Konferenzband zur Aufgabe mit dem Gottlichen zu ringen und nach dem Fremden und Widerspruchlichen in der Rede von Gott, aber auch in den menschlichen Zuschreibungen, zu suchen. Die Autorinnen aus unterschiedlichen L"nderkontexten und Religionen arbeiten sich am Gottesbegriff und an festgewachsenen Identit"tspolitiken ab. Die Rede von Gott wird als Gottin, als Gott-Sie, als Barmherzige und judische Shekhinah erprobt.Erg"nzung finden die zwischen queerer Theologie und der Theologie weiblicher Differenz divergierenden Beitr"ge namhafter feministischer Theologinnen durch Beitr"ge jungerer Kolleginnen.

About this title

Synopsis

We sometimes seem to live in an age when answers, indeed the right answers, appear to dominate all areas of our lives and to our mind this is particularly tragic in the area of theology, a place that should be engaged in the most profound questioning rather than one that finds the answer and sticks to it. This wrestling with what we perceive to be the divine seems out of fashion. Even the ethical debates that rage within the churches about women, homosexuals, abortion, genetic engineering - the list is endless - appear at times to be conducted by two sides that have already made up their minds about the right answer. English, Spanish, and German text.
