• Sommario/riassunto: Many feminists today are challenging the outmoded aspects of both the conventions and the study of religion in radical ways. Canadian feminists are no exception. Gender, Genre and Religion is the outcome of a research network of leading women scholars organized to survey the contribution of Canadian women working in the field of religious studies and, further, to ""plot the path forward."" This collection of their essays covers most of the major religious traditions and offers exciting suggestions as to how religious traditions will change as women take on more central role
