- Description
- These essays provide an accessible presentation of contemporary feminism and study of religion and reveal how feminism has affected religious institutions, theology and individual religious/spiritual practice. They describe the connections between the feminist movement from the early 1970s and religious studies as they have developed in the U.S. since then. Readings range from academic analyses to accounts of personal decision-making and struggle. It includes first-person and imaginative literature along with historical and analytical pieces from such authors as Jacquelyn Grant, Kwok Pui-Lan, Carol Christ, and Judith Plaskow. Multi-cultural and multi-generational representation from established voices and Third-Wave feminists. It includes three pieces by Muslim writers, four by African Americans, four by Jewish feminists, three by Latinas, and two by Asian Americans. These readings illustrate how women from different backgrounds have struggled to reconcile loyalties to their ethnic and religious communities with criticism of the status and treatment of women with those communities' religious traditions

- Description
- Boylan explored the flourishing of women's volunteer associations in the decades following the Revolution. She examined the entire spectrum of early nineteenth-century women's groups - Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish: African American and white: middle and working class - to illuminate the ways in which race, religion, and class could bring women together in pursuit of common goals or drive them apart.

- Description
- Cultures of Modernism explores how the structure and location of literary communities significantly influence who writes, what they write about, and their openness to formal experimentation. These influences particularly affect women writers. Author Cristanne Miller notes striking patterns of similarity in the concerns and lives of women living in geographically distant centers of modernist production. She looks at three significant poets---the American Marianne Moore, the British expatriate Mina Loy, and the German Else Lasker-Schüler---in the context of cultural, national, and local elements to argue that location significantly affected their performances of subjectivity, gender, race, and religion.
