Poststructuralism, feminism, and religion

by Carol Wayne White

"In this assessment of the relation between poststructuralism and feminism as it impacts on current religious thought, philosopher Carol Wayne White convincingly demonstrates that postmodernist Western and feminist philosophy - far from being antithetical to religious concerns - in fact enriches our understanding of religion and its relevance to debates about contemporary culture. By triangulating these three unique perspectives on culture, she expands prevalent views of cultural criticism and opens up the discussion to new creative solutions that arise from the intersecting interests of poststructuralist, feminist, and religious studies."--BOOK JACKET.
