The French
theorists discussed here, ambitious figures for many English-speaking
academics, come into their own on questions of language and symbolic
order,
love and death, desire and political efficacy -- the natural turf of
the religious.
This is an excellent collection of new essays on the important,
but as yet
under-explored, confluence of French feminist theory and religious
thought.
-- Janet Soskice, Reader in Philosophical Theology, University of
Cambridge
O'Grady is a stellar scholar on French thinking, who writes brilliantly, with subtle, sophisticated and insightful prose about Kristeva, religion and feminism.
-- Pamela Sue Anderson, Oxford University in The European Journal of Women's Studies (13: 1, p. 63)
This is a wonderful book...a must read for all who wish to continue the struggle to think and live differently.
-- Lisa Isherwood, Founder of the School of Feminist Theology and Prof. of the University of Winchester (Feminist Theology, 15: 2006, p. 129)
*Featured book at the American Academy of Religion panel session, November 2004.
