Peeters Publishers Scandinavian Critique of Anglo-American Feminist Theology - Skandinavische Kritik Angloamerikanischer Feministischer Theologie - Critique Scandinave De La Theologie Feministe Anglo-Americaine
Scandinavian Critique of Anglo-American Feminist Theology is a collection of articles by scholars in various theological disciplines from five Scandinavian or Nordic countries. The articles cover a wide range of topics, including feminist sexual ethics, ecofeminist theology, gender perspectives on European welfare systems, Birgitta of Sweden and a search for Mary beyond stereotypes. As the title implies, a critical dialogue with US feminist theology is a recurrent theme throughout the book, but the essays also include constructive work from different theological perspectives. The journal also includes a bibliography that shows the diversity of Scandinavian and Nordic feminist theological research.

Peeters Publishers Holy Texts: Authority and Language - Heilige Texte: Autoritat und Sprache - Textes Sacres: Autorite et Langue
This yearbook is based on the papers presented at the 2003 International Conference of the European Society for Women in the Theological Research, held in the Netherlands. The theme of that conference was "Holy Texts: Authority and Language," a theme which addresses one of the key issues of feminist theology: how the holy texts of religious traditions, which are predominantly masculine in language and imagery, can have authority in the lives of contemporary women and men. The papers collected in the Yearbook document the many ways in which this problem has been addressed by feminist scholars in the last thirty years, and chart the new ways in which feminist theologians and theoreticians are now addressing these questions - in hermeneutics, but also in Systematic and Historical Theology, and in praxis: in liturgy and in teaching.

Peeters Publishers Becoming Living Communities - Construyendo Comunidades Vivas - Lebendige Gemeinschaften Werden
This number of the Journal of the ESWTR presents a good selection of the lectures and mini-lectures at the conference, which took place in the beach resort of Vico Equense (south of Naples, Italy) from 29 August to 2 September 2007. It was organised by Adriana Valerio, then president of the ESWTR. The articles restore the pluralist perspectives on the topic: "Becoming living communities" across many places, places where women live in families and cities, study the scriptures and traditions, and inhabit the churches. In the event, the three perspectives proved to intersect, showing how well chosen this approach was.

Peeters Publishers Building Bridges in a Multifaceted Europe. Religious Origins, Traditions, Contexts and Identities - Brucken Bauen in Einem Vielgestaltigen Europa. Religiose Ursprunge, Traditionen, Kontexte Und Identitaten - Construire Des Ponts Dans Une Eu
Building bridges has been and still is the main task of the European Society of Women in Theological Research (ESWTR). It aims to facilitate theological and academic religious debate transcending the borders between languages and countries, as well as those resulting from religions, confessions, cultures or traditions, in order to offer constructive future perspectives. This volume has now adopted "building bridges" as its main theme. It reflects the contributions to the 11th International Conference of ESWTR held in 2005 in the unique historical and cultural setting of Budapest. European women in the lead of theological research discuss the subject on the basis of their different specialist approaches and thus provide a unique spectrum of contemporary discourse from very varied disciplines in theology and religious studies.
