According to Chittister, the patriarchal culture that has shaped our world has also brought us to the edge of destruction with its dualisms, hierarchies, and inequality. She outlines the historical realities that produced this situation and describes how patriarchal culture and spirituality maintain their hold on us. She then argues that there is another way which is better and introduces us to a feminist worldview that, in recognizing the full humanity of women, leads all of us to new, better ways of being and relating. Joan Chittister takes a very real look at what it means to have a feminist spirituality --a "heart of flesh"-- in todays culture. She unmasks the effects of sexism on both men and women and describes a spirituality that makes healthier, happier human beings of us all.

The purpose of this book is to provide an outlet for original research articles examining the role and value of religious and spiritual constructs across the social sciences. The aim of the series is to include an international and interfaith voice to this research dialogue. An effort is made to be interdisciplinary and academically eclectic. The articles in each volume represent a wide array of perspectives and research projects. Most of the articles report the findings of quantitative or qualitative investigations, but some deal with methodology, theory, or applications of social science studies in the field of religion, and some are applied, demonstrating the relevance of the social sciences to religious organizations and their clergy. The value of the volume is that it gives to researchers in this area a broad perspective on the issues and methods of religious research across a spectrum of academic disciplines. The aim of the book is to stimulate a creative, integrative dialogue that will enhance interdisciplinary research.

Malgré l'abondance des travaux féministes et théologiques produits au Québec depuis plus de quarante ans, il n'existait toujours pas, avant ce livre, de synthèse sur le féminisme en regard de la spiritualité. Il était plus que temps de rassembler dans un ouvrage ses principales théoriciennes : voilà une lacune comblée.L'autrice fait ici un retour sur les idées fortes élaborées durant ses quelque trente années d'enseignement et de recherche dans le domaine. « Le personnel est politique... et théorique », dit le slogan féministe dont elle s'est inspirée. Sa démarche, qu'elle qualifie d'existentielle, l'a amenée à relire l'histoire de sa vie, ses engagements et ses postures théoriques pour poser des questions essentielles. Quelles intersections construire entre le féminisme et la spiritualité ? Comment vivre dans ce temps de transformations des relations ? Comment des féministes chrétiennes québécoises ont-elles relu le christianisme et parlé de la Dieue, de Christa, de la trinité et de Marie ? Comment se vivent les solidarités interspirituelles ? Et comment déconstruire le patriarcat néoconservateur religieux ? En parlant de l'ultime à travers l'intime, l'autrice dans cet ouvrage fondamental pose les jalons de la transformation du féminisme dans le domaine du religieux et du spirituel.

En tant que pionnière de l'art féministe et de la spiritualité féminine, les premières oeuvres de la peintre suédoise Monica Sjöö cherchaient à exprimer son ressentiment croissant envers les injustices sociales. Les créations ultérieures évoquent d'anciens systèmes de connaissances et de croyances, s'inspirant des images de sites païens et de symboles féminins du passé, reflétant les recherches de toute une vie sur les anciennes cultures matriarcales. Ce catalogue retrace l'engagement profond de l'artiste pour la justice de genre et environnementale. "decitre.fr".

“I see spirituality and social change to be integrally related to each other. I believe that liberation efforts that are supported by spiritual experiences of integration promote human dignity as well as social equality.” Bodied Mindfulness combines spiritual, social and analytical perspectives to explore topics central to women’s development: spirituality, women’s bodies, cultural constructions of women’s sexuality in language, sexual ethics, the sexual contract in politics and at work, and the relation between nature and culture. It is Tomm’s deeply held conviction that women need to bring a vital spirituality to feminist social criticism in order to resolve these issues and increase their power to promote social justice and ecological balance. Tomm embraces a vast store of knowledge from diverse sources, including Buddhist, shamanist and feminist resources. In a move away from abstract theorizing, she explicitly connects theory with realities lived by women. Grounding theory in personal experience — her own and others — Tomm delivers a powerful and empowering account of women’s spirituality. The resulting ontological transformation allows women to live deeply in the body while strengthening their relation to human and non-human matter and energy. Bodied Mindfulness will be of great interest to feminist scholars in all disciplines, but most particularly to those in Women’s Studies and Religious Studies.

"In this book, Marina Magloire draws on the collected archives of distinguished 20th century Black woman artists and writers such as Lucille Clifton, Katherine Dunham, Audre Lorde, Toni Cade Bambara, Lorraine Hansberry, Nina Simone, and Zora Neale Hurston to trace a new history of Black feminist thought in relation to Afro-diaspora religion. She offers an alternative genealogy of Black feminism beginning in the 1930s with the path breaking ethnographic work of Katherine Dunham and Zora Neale Hurston in Haiti and ending with the present-day popularity of Afro-diasporic spiritual practices among Black women"--
