Description

The text examines the impact of contemporary feminism on the practice and study of religion and reveals how feminism has affected religious institutions, theology, and individual religious/spiritual practice. This reader places the literature of women's spirituality within the context of broader feminist themes and diverse cultural experiences. The essays, from both established and newer feminist voices, provide an accessible presentation of literature on women and religion in relation to women's studies as a discipline. (Back cover).
