Using modern critical methods such as feminist theory, poststructuralism, and the new historicisms, the contributors examine how the ideas in these texts are being reworked within and beyond different religious traditions. The roles, actions, writings, and beliefs of women in pre-Christian, Christian, Islamic, indigenous, and neo-pagan contenxts are considered.
