The Israelite Woman
Author: Athalya Brenner-Idan
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567657752
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
In the first edition of The Israelite Woman Athalya Brenner-Idan provided the first book-length treatment by a feminist biblical scholar of the female characters in the Hebrew Bible. Now, thirty years later, Brenner provides a fresh take on this ground-breaking work, considering how scholarly observation of female biblical characters has changed and how it has not. Brenner-Idan also provides a new and highly personal introduction to the book, which details, perhaps surprisingly to present readers, what was at stake for female biblical scholars looking to engage honestly in the academic debate at the time in which the book was first written. This will make difficult reading for some, particularly those whose own views have not changed. The main part of the book presents Brenner-Idans's now classic examination of the roles of women in the society of ancient Israel, and the roles they play in the biblical narratives. In Part I Brenner-Idan surveys what can be known about the roles of queens, wise women, women poets and authors, prophetesses, magicians, sorcerers and witches and female prostitutes in Israelite society. In Part II the focus is on the typical roles in which Hebrew women appear in biblical stories, as mother of the hero, as temptress, as foreigner, and as ancestress. In these narratives, for which there are standard plots and structures and characterizations readily available, women play a generally domestic role. Not only is the book a highly valuable resource detailing the social role of women in ancient Israel, and showing how the interpretation of women in the bible has been influenced by convention, but it is also a challenging reminder of how outdated attitudes can still prevail.

Die Bibel war für sie ein politisches Buch
Author: Irmtraud Fischer
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 3643510195

Languages : de
Pages : 222
Book Description
Im 19. Jahrhundert liegen die Ursprünge sowohl der Internationalität der Frauenbewegungen als auch des Aufbruchs von Frauen zu wissenschaftlichem Engagement in der Erforschung der Bibel und ihres sozialgeschichtlichen Umfeldes. Wer für die Gleichberechtigung der Frauen und gegen die Benachteiligung aufgrund des Geschlechts kämpfte, kam damals an der Bibel und ihren traditionellen Auslegungen nicht vorbei. Die Beiträge widmen sich Ländern wie Schweden, Finnland, Lettland oder Armenien, dem Schaffen von Literatinnen sowie der archäologischen Erforschung der biblischen Landschaften durch Frauen.

Common Bodies
Author: Maaike de Haardt
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 9783825855789
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
The gendered body in its common, everyday activities and references is the central focus of this book. Recognizing the highly abstract and often 'disembodied' character of contemporary discussions on 'the body' in relation to gender, subjectivity and discourse, the authors of this anthology start their inquiries at a more mundane level by studying 'common bodies': human bodies and bodily practices in daily situations of (domestic) work and care, of sex, love and violence, and of prayer and ritual. From this angle of 'corporeal agency' they discuss the meaning of religion, religiosity, transcendence and/or Divinity.

Reading the Body of Christ
Author: Saskia Wendel
Publisher: Brill Schoningh
ISBN: 9783506784926
Category : Human body
Languages : de
Pages : 210
Book Description
Die Leib-Christi-Metaphorik ist in Christologie und Ekklesiologie besonders wirkmächtig - bis heute. Das zeigt sich an den einflussreichen Körperbildern und vielschichtigen Konstruktionen von Geschlecht, die mit dem »Leib Christi« verbunden werden. Die theologische Rede vom »Leib Christi« ist nicht "unschuldig", denn durch sie werden auch Vorstellungen von Körperlichkeit und Geschlecht in der Theologie verankert und legitimiert. Expert*innen aus den USA, Großbritannien und Deutsch-land gehen den Funktionen und Implikationen der Leib-Christi-Metapher auf die Spur, und sie sensibilisieren dafür, sowohl die Potenziale als auch die Probleme der Leib Christi-Metaphorik wahrzunehmen. In den christlich¬theologischen und religionswissenschaftlichen Analysen, u. a. der Theolo-gien Karl Rahners, Joseph Ratzingers, Hans Urs von Balthasars und Jon Sobrinos, wird dabei auch immer wieder die Frage aufgeworfen, wie tragfähig die Leib-Christi-Metapher heute noch sein kann.

Rape Plots
Author: Susanne Scholz
Publisher: Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Rape Plots documents the cultural significance of biblical scholarship and the Bible to the prevalence of rape in contemporary society. Focused on Genesis 34 and informed by feminist scholarship, this study examines ideas on rape reflected in nineteenth-century German commentaries as well as interpretations from 1970 to 1997. Cross-disciplinary references to forensic medicine and feminist theories place the views of biblical readers into cultural contexts. Similar to other discourses, biblical scholarship has minimized rape. An exegesis restores this imbalance and reads Genesis 34 as Dinah's story.
