基本説明
Drawing from a range of materials this volume offers important critiques of the way religious and feminist knowledge is constructed.
Full Description
Contributors examine white feminist theology's misappropriations of Native North American women, Chinese footbinding, and veiling by Muslim women, as well as the Jewish emancipation in France, the symbolic dismemberment of black women by rap and sermons, and the potential to rewrite and reclaim canonical stories.
