Motherhood and Love: Beyond the Gendered Stereotypes of Theology
No Customer Reviews
It is possible to reinterpret the biblical portrayal of motherhood so that it no longer perpetuates the subordination of women? Responding to a perceived conflict between feminism and theology, feminist theologian Cristina Grenholm blends systematic theology, gender studies, and biblical interpretation to construct a nontraditional understanding of motherhood in the Bible. Grenholm's innovative approach revisits the biblical figure of Mary -- whom she calls "a theological challenge in our time" -- with a view to analyzing, critiquing, and revising the traditional Christian understanding of motherhood and maternal love.
