Womanpriest is the first academic study of the RCWP movement. As an ethnography, Womanpriest analyzes the womenpriests' actions and lived theologies in order to explore ongoing tensions in Roman Catholicism around gender and sexuality, priestly authority, and religious change. In order to understand how womenpriests navigate tradition and transgression, this study situates RCWP within post-Vatican II Catholicism, apostolic succession, sacraments, ministerial action, and questions of embodiment. Womanpriest reveals RCWP to be a discrete religious movement in a distinct religious moment, with a small group of tenacious women defying the Catholic patriarchy, taking on the priestly role, and demanding reconsideration of Roman Catholic tradition. Doing so, the women inhabit and re-create the central tensions in Catholicism today. 410 0$aCatholic practice in North America. 606 $aWomen priests 606 $aOrdination of women$xCatholic Church 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aRoman Catholicism. 610 $afeminism. 610 $aordination. 610 $apriesthood. 610 $asacraments. 610 $awomanpriest. 610 $awomen. 615 0$aWomen priests. 615 0$aOrdination of women$xCatholic Church. 676 $a262.142082 700 $aPeterfeso$b Jill$0968769 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996365043703316 996 $aWomanpriest$92200543 997 $aUNISA
