Celebrating maturity : 28 years of the Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians (1989-2017). 330 $aWhen "African Theology" was first formulated, women played just a small role. In 1989 Mercy Amba Oduyoye set out to change this by creating the Circle of Concerned African Theologians in order to them a voice. The Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians is an African Baby, born in an ecumenical surrounding. Though there were other movements addressing the issue of gender inequalities in church and society, circle theologies are distinct from other women's liberation movements in that they are theologies formed in the context of African culture and religion. This book traces the Circle history from 1989 to 2007. 410 0$aMzuni books ;$vno. 30. 606 $aFeminist theology$zAfrica$xHistory 606 $aWomen theologians$zAfrica$xHistory 615 0$aFeminist theology$xHistory. 615 0$aWomen theologians$xHistory. 676 $a276.0082 700 $aFiedler$b Rachel Nyagondwe$01578307 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795498003321 996 $aA history of the Circle of Concerned African Women theologians 1989-2007$93857600 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04652nam 2200637 a 450 001 9910974565103321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786612788260 010 $a9781282788268 010 $a1282788264 010 $a9780299193638 010 $a0299193632 035 $a(CKB)2560000000050135 035 $a(EBL)3445089 035 $a(OCoLC)669518778 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000427008 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11289842 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000427008 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10390029 035 $a(PQKB)11268749 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse12196 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3445089 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10415770 035 $a(OCoLC)747531207 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3445089 035 $a(Perlego)4386192 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000050135 100 $a20030317g20041996 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aRemote $ereflections on life in the shadow of celebrity /$fDavid Shields ; foreword by Phillip Lopate 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aMadison $cUniversity of Wisconsin Press$d[2004], c1996 215 $a1 online resource (189 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780299193645 311 08$a0299193640 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 161-170). 327 $aIntro -- Acknowledgments -- Foreword -- Prologue: Life Story -- The Nimbus of Her Fame Makes a Nullity of Us All -- Problems and Solutions to Problems -- Information Sickness -- Life Story -- Life Story -- Radio -- Blood and Guts in High School -- Always -- Almost Famous -- The Nimbus of His Fame Makes a Nullity of Us All -- The Cultural Contradictions of Late Capitalism -- Robert Capa, Misunderstood -- Love Is Not a Consolation -- Desire -- The Nimbus of Their Fame Makes a Nullity of Us All -- The Tradition Is Here, the Memories Are Waiting: Several More Sporting Events in Search of a Sponsor -- Always -- The Confessions -- The Cultural Contradictions of Late Capitalism -- Almost Famous -- The Nimbus of His Fame Makes a Nullity of Us All -- Robert Capa, Misunderstood -- The Nimbus of His Fame Makes a Nullity of Us All -- About the Author -- Why We Live at the Movies -- Desire -- Where We Live and What We Live For -- Where We Live and What We Live For -- Where We Live and What We Live For -- Life Is Elsewhere: A Rube's Lament -- Almost Famous -- Stuttering -- Robert Capa, Misunderstood -- The Nimbus of Her Fame Makes a Nullity of Us All -- Where We Live and What We Live For -- Problems and Solutions to Problems -- Problems and Solutions to Problems -- The Subject at the Vanishing Point -- The Confessions -- Almost Famous -- Why We Live at the Movies -- Why We Live at the Movies -- The Nimbus of His Fame etc.: Dreams about Kurt Cobain -- The One We Truly Want -- The Cultural Contradictions of Late Capitalism -- The Cultural Contradictions of Early Capitalism: Postcards from Camp -- Love Is Not a Consolation -- Love Is a Light -- Desire -- Why We Live at the Movies -- The Confessions -- The One We Truly Want: A Brief Survey of Ideal Desire -- Radio -- Last Lines: It Isn't the Suspense That Is Killing Us -- Epilogue: How to Make a Paper Hat -- Notes. 330 8 $aIn this truly one-of-a-kind book, the author/narrator-a representative, in extremis, of contemporary American obsession with beauty, celebrity, transmitted image-finds himself suspended, fascinated, in the remoteness of our wall-to-wall mediascape. It is a remoteness that both perplexes and enthralls him. Through dazzling sleight of hand in which the public becomes private and the private becomes public, the entire book-clicking from confession to family-album photograph to family chronicle to sexual fantasy to pseudo-scholarly footnote to reportage to personal essay to stand-up comedy to cultural criticism to literary criticism to film criticism to prose-poem to litany to outtake -becomes both an anatomy of American culture and a searing self-portrait. David Shields reads his own life-reads our life-as if it were an allegory about remoteness and finds persuasive, hilarious, heartbreaking evidence wherever he goes.
