Many Christians do not know the Bible contains female images of God because they have never heard nor seen them in church. In Women, Ritual, and Power, Elizabeth Ursic gives the reader insight into four Christian communities that worship God with female imagery, both as a worship focus and a community identity. These Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, and Catholic congregations operate within their established church denominations and are led by either ordained Protestant ministers or vowed Catholic sisters. Because expressing God-as-She can expose strident claims for maintaining God-as-He, this book shows not only how patriarchy continues to operate in churches today, but also how it is being successfully challenged through liturgy.

Dans ce volume posthume, Jean Rudhardt est un vrai Sherlock Holmes. D'une curiosité insatiable, l'esprit sans cesse en éveil, il enquête sur la féminité dans la mythologie grecque, la manière dont l'enfance des dieux est représentée ou les rapports entre politique et religion. Il observe, étudie, décortique, explore et fouille textes mythiques et historiques. Son investigation, bien sûr scientifique, ne manque ni d'humour ni de panache. Il sait planter le décor, tient une écriture vive et musicale, souvent formidablement rythmée. Le lecteur apprend que la grève est une invention féminine ou que les dieux font eux aussi l'expérience de la mort. Surtout, l'auteur rappelle à quel point il faut entrer dans la psychologie du sujet étudié, ici le Grec, connaître sa langue, pénétrer dans son système de pensée, si nous voulons comprendre son comportement.

This book deals with aspects of the gender imaging of God in a variety of medieval kabbalistic sources. It provides the key to understanding the phenomenological structures of mystical experience as well as the thematic correlation of esotericism and eroticism that is central to the kabbalah. The author examines the role of gender utilizing current feminist studies and cultural anthropology. He explores the themes of the feminization of the Torah, the correlation of circumcision and vision of God, the phallocentric understanding of divine creation as a process of inscription mythologized as an act of sexual self-gratification, and the phenomenon of gender-crossing in kabbalistic myth and ritual. Collectively, the studies explore in great depth the androcentric phallocentrism that is characteristic of medieval Jewish mysticism.
