Penn State University Feminist Interpretations of Mary Daly
Book SynopsisPresenting a re-reading of Mary Daly's published works, this open-ended anthology seeks to deauthorize the official canon of Western philosophy and refute the claim by some feminists that Daly's work is unworthy of further analysis because it contains fatal errors.Trade Review“The editors’ introduction is a luscious piece of feminist scholarship that mirrors the individual authors’ attention to Mary Daly’s call for creating oneself through appropriation of language and use of metaphor. Further, Hoagland and Frye’s introduction gives readers an insightful, insider’s glimpse into feminism’s internal debate about diversity and inclusivity.”—S. Martinelli-Fernandez Choice“The anthology reflects the depth, breadth, and process of Daly’s writings, demonstrating that her thinking continues to transform and spiral in novel ways. In this way its very form functions as a counter argument to the critiques of Daly as an essentialist. Hoagland and Frye have put together an excellent text that every college library and women’s studies office should own.”—Helene Tallon Russell Religious Studies Review“Feminist Interpretations of Mary Daly provides a thought-provoking collection of writings on one of the most influential and controversial radical feminist thinkers. The contributors to this anthology discuss a wide range of topics, considering Daly as theologian, linguist, ontologist, (meta)ethicist, and epistemologist.”—Carol Quinn Philosophy in Review

And for all of us they provide a theoretical framework in which to read the present as well as the past.”—Women’s Review of Books “The style is both scholarly and direct without being ponderous. Frye makes a concerted effort to stimulate discussion, as opposed to arguing unopposed, so that much of the work is novel and candid. . . .
