The contributors, using modern critical methods such as feminist theory, postculturalism, and the new historicisms, examine how the ideas in these texts are being reworked in different religious traditions. The volume encompasses both contemporary and historical contexts, tracing the roles, actions, writings, and beliefs of women in pre-Christian, Christian, Islamic, indigenous, and neo-pagan contexts. The book builds on three decades of feminist research into such areas as American Academy of Religion cultural criticism series.Women and religionFeminist literary criticismReligious literatureHistory and criticismWomen and religion.Feminist literary criticism.Religious literatureHistory and criticism.200/.82Devlin-Glass Frances1502195McCredden Lyn1502196MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784661303321Feminist poetics of the sacred3729811UNINA
