Written from a religious studies perspective (one of those academic disciplines that doesn't have a lot of "there" there), these essays tend to be unable to critique religious attitudes towards sex and gender, since the religious point-of-view is usually privileged. This leads to a lot of dross. I did, however, find the William LaFleur and the Carter Heyward articles to have ideas worth chewing on. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Bringing together original work from some of the world's leading specialists in the field, this new volume offers wide-ranging and enlightening new perspectives on the role of love, sex and gender in a variety of different faiths. Among the issues covered are gender politics, sexual symbolism and religious ecstasy, and their role in religions as diverse as Christianity and Tibetan Buddhism. Featuring essays by such distinguished thinkers as Arvind Sharma, Karen Lebacqz, Julius Lipner, Karen Jo Torjesen and Carter Heyward, this new collection combines classic sources of text and tradition with innovative ideas and modes of thought, creating a detailed but accessible study. This clear and concise book will challenge the reader to think creatively about both past and present concepts of sexuality, relationships and the role of women in the world faiths. It should be of interest to students, scholars and the interested general reader alike. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
