- Description
- Storied Selves focuses on feminist Witches and their constructions of identities through the use of opposition and speculation as technologies of identity, particularly (post)colonial, maternal, and holistic identities. Through these identity formations, feminist Witches are invested in changing consciousness to create a just and sustainable world - an act that is fundamental to their practices of magic. The analysis draws from the two major North American traditions of feminist Witchcraft: Dianic and Reclaiming. Novels analyzed in the book are: Barbara Walker's Amazon, Cynthia Lamb's Bridid's Charge, and Starhawk's 'The fifth sacred thing'.

- Description
- In this work Marty Kheel offers an ecofeminist perspective on nature ethics. She argues that the influential nature theorists whose work se examines represent a masculinist orientation that devalues concern for individual animals. Drawing on feminist theories, such as an ethic of care, inspired by educational psychologist Casrol Gilligan she seeks to heal the divisions among movements and philosophies of feminism, animal advocacy, environmental ethics and holistic health .

- Description
- From 'Mother Earth' to 'Mother Nature,' women have for centuries been associated with nature. Feminists were sometimes troubled by the way in which such representations show women controlled by powerful natural forces. In this book Stacy Alaimo issues a call to reclaim nature as feminist space. Her analysis of a range of feminist writings--as well as of popular culture--demonstrates that nature has been an essential concept for feminist theory and practice. .Alaimo urges feminist theorists to rethink the concept of nature by probing the vastly different meanings that it carries. She discusses its significance for Americans engaged in social and political struggles from, for example, the 'Indian Wars' of the early nineteenth century, to the birth control movement in the 1920s, to contemporary battles against racism and heterosexism. Reading works by Catherine Sedgwick, Mary Austin, Emma Goldman, Nella Larson, Donna Haraway, Toni Morrison, and others, Alaimo finds that some of these writers strategically invoke nature for feminist purposes while others cast nature as a postmodern agent of resistance in the service of both environmentalism and the women's movement.
