A Queer Method for Theology. Genilma Boehler1 Summary This
1 The pot of gold: a queer method for theology. Genilma Boehler1 Summary This article proposes an approach to theology through the queer method. Queer theory leads to a paradigm shift in which the Other (masculine), the Other (feminine), as subjects, assume a key role from the theoretical perspectives born out of post- structuralism and deconstructivism, not as an identifying mold, but by objectifying post- identity. The novelty for Latin American theology is in the possibility of re- conceptualizing the subject not with fixed, stable aspects, but with ample freedom. This also broadens the possibility for other aspects of conceptual renewal surrounding theological discourse, and of metaphors about God. Keywords: Queer method, Theology, Feminism, Post-identity, Subjects. Introduction In 2006 as I was preparing my doctoral research project2, I was confronted with an intriguing doubt: to choose a theology able to interact with the poetry of Adélia Prado,3 which in its literary production possessed various combined elements such as Biblical ones, theological ones, together with body, the erotic, sensuality, sexuality, and daily life. It was exactly at that juncture, when I was searching for theologies that would work with the hermeneutical key of sexuality, when I stumbled across lesbian feminist theologies (which I was already familiar with, just not on a deeper level), gay theologies and queer theology. These theologies provided me with a key to transgression such as suspicion to deconstruct concepts that are well established yet at the same time simplify the very same theological discourse. I was presented with an extremely attractive landscape, as I learned and deepened my understanding of my readings of queer theory. -

By and large, Americans form their moral conscience based on the teachings of the church and so since the church condemns homosexuality, Americans blindly accept this teaching. This condemnation has done immense harm to the LGBT community and it is time for the LGBT community to reclaim Christianity. -
Implications of Queer Theory for the Study of Religion and Gender?
Religion and Gender vol. 1, no. 1 (2011), 1-17 www.religionandgender.org URN: NBN:NL:UI:10-1-101587 ISSN: 1878-5417 Publisher: Igitur Publishing (Utrecht) Copyright: this work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution License (3.0) Openings: A Genealogical Introduction to Religion and Gender ANNE-MARIE KORTE Profile Statement Religion and Gender is the first refereed online international journal for the systematic study of gender and religion in an interdisciplinary perspective. The journal explores the relation, confrontation and intersection of gender and religion, taking into account the multiple and changing manifestations of religion in diverse social and cultural contexts. It analyses and reflects critically on gender in its interpretative and imaginative dimensions and as a fundamental principle of social ordering. It seeks to investigate gender at the intersection of feminist, sexuality, queer, masculinity and diversity studies. As an academic journal, Religion and Gender aims to publish high level contributions from the humanities and from qualitative and conceptual studies in the social sciences. It wants to focus in particular on contemporary debates and topics of emerging interest. Albeit international in scope, the journal takes seriously that it is situated in contemporary Europe. It seeks to reflect on this position, particularly from postmodern, postcolonial, and post-secular perspectives. Korte: Openings The journal appears twice a year, each issue focussing on a specific theme. Scholars are welcome to submit articles for review or propose topical issues under their guest editorship. Renowned scholars may be invited to submit keynote articles on specific topics. In particular, we welcome contributions which advance, broaden and innovate discourses, debates and paradigms by virtue of their originality, rigour and/or counter- hegemonial perspectives. -
Searching for the True Women's Writing
"SPLITTING OPEN THE WORLD" - SEARCHING FOR THE TRUE WOMEN'S WRITING BY JENNIFER DONOVAN A thesis submitted in part fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Honours). Department of Sociology University of New South Wales February, 1991 SYNOPSIS This thesis explores the contention presented by the so-called French feminists (including Irigaray, Kristeva, and especially Cixous) that the situation of women cannot change until they have their own discourse and that women's writing must be based in their bodies. The purpose of "l'ecriture feminine", these writers claim, 1s to inscribe difference, to awaken women to one another, and to undermine patriarchy. My ambition was to find actual examples of this "ecriture feminine", and evidence of its effects. In attempting to deal with the abstruseness of much of the writing by the French women who encourage women to celebrate the difference and "write the body", I have briefly indicated some points of contact and divergence between Anglo-American feminists and the French. I have also described the persistent patriarchal obstruction to women's writing in order to highlight the revolutionary potential of writing the body. I examined writing by women who were variously woman identified, feminist and anti-feminist. I also considered various styles of women's writing, particularly poetry, which seemed to approach most closely the discourse envisaged by the French theorists. The writers discussed include Tillie Olsen, Marge Piercy, Christina Stead, Adrienne Rich, Mary Daly, Susan Griffin and others. ACKNOWIEDGEMENTS This thesis owes its existence to the energies of many people other than just the author. -
Lesbian Lives and Rights in Chatelaine
From No Go to No Logo: Lesbian Lives and Rights in Chatelaine Barbara M. Freeman Carleton University Abstract: This study is a feminist cultural and critical analysis of articles about lesbians and their rights that appeared in Chatelaine magazine between 1966 and 2004. It explores the historical progression of their media representation, from an era when lesbians were pitied and barely tolerated, through a period when their struggles for their legal rights became paramount, to the turn of the present cen- tury when they were displaced by post-modern fashion statements about the “flu- idity” of sexual orientation, and stripped of their identity politics. These shifts in media representation have had as much to do with marketing the magazine as with its liberal editors’ attempts to deal with lesbian lives and rights in ways that would appeal to readers. At the heart of this overview is a challenge to both the media and academia to reclaim lesbians in all their diversity in their real histori- cal and contemporary contexts. Résumé : Cette étude propose une analyse critique et culturelle féministe d’ar- ticles publiés dans le magazine Châtelaine entre 1966 et 2004, qui traitent des droits des lesbiennes. Elle explore l’évolution historique de leur représentation dans les médias, de l’époque où les lesbiennes étaient tout juste tolérées, à une période où leur lutte pour leurs droits légaux devint prépondérante, jusqu’au tournant de ce siècle où elles ont été dépouillées de leur politique identitaire et « déplacées » par des éditoriaux postmodernes de la mode sur la « fluidité » de leur orientation sexuelle. -

The Shattered Vessel: The Dying Person in Jewish Law and Ethics Philip J. Bentley, DD* I. INTRODUCTION On the day when Rabbi died the Rabbis decreed a public fast and offered prayers for heavenly mercy. They furthermore announced that whoever said that Rabbi was dead would be stabbed with a sword. Rabbi's handmaid ascended the roof and prayed: 'The immortals desire Rabbi [to join them] and the mortals desire Rabbi [to remain with them]; may it be the will [of God] that the mortals may overpower the immortals.' When, however, she saw how often he resorted to the privy, painfully taking off his tefillin and putting them on again, she prayed: 'May it be the will [of the Almighty] that the immortals may overpower the mortals.' As the Rabbis incessantly continued their prayers for [heavenly] mercy she took up a jar and threw it down from the roof to the ground. -

UCL Institute of Education Eventful Gender
UCL Institute of Education Eventful Gender: An Ethnographic Exploration of Gender Knowledge Production at International Academic Conferences Emily Frascatore Henderson A thesis submitted to the UCL Institute of Education for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2016 1 2 Declaration I, Emily Frascatore Henderson, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where the information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. This thesis may be made available to the general public for borrowing, photocopying, or consultation without the prior consent of the author. The copyright of the thesis rests with the author. Quotation from the thesis is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. The thesis was completed during a PhD studentship funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), UK. Word count: 99,921. 3 4 Abstract The concept of gender is both celebrated and maligned in academic discourse; gender is credited with opening up or closing down debates, including or excluding concepts and the groups they designate. But how does gender come to mean what it means? This thesis is a deconstructive study of gender, which explores the conceptual negotiations that establish ‘what counts’ as gender. I argue that conceptual work on gender is bound up in political contestations which affect how social identities and processes entailed in thinking about gender are expressed and understood. The study is located in the embodied ‘context’ of international academic knowledge production, where conceptual negotiations cannot rely on familiar understandings of gender. Three national women’s studies association conferences were researched, in the United Kingdom, United States and India. -
Judaizing and Singularity in England, 1618-1667
Judaizing and Singularity in England, 1618-1667 Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Aidan Francis Cottrell-Boyce, Gonville and Caius College, June 2018. For Anna. Abstract In the seventeenth century, in England, a remarkable number of small, religious movements began adopting demonstratively Jewish ritual practices. They were labelled by their contemporaries as Judaizers. Typically, this phenomenon has been explained with reference to other tropes of Puritan practical divinity. It has been claimed that Judaizing was a form of Biblicism or a form of millenarianism. In this thesis, I contend that Judaizing was an expression of another aspect of the Puritan experience: the need to be recognized as a ‘singular,’ positively- distinctive, separated minority. Contents Introduction 1 Singularity and Puritanism 57 Judaizing and Singularity 99 ‘A Jewish Faccion’: Anti-legalism, Judaizing and the Traskites 120 Thomas Totney, Judaizing and England’s Exodus 162 The Tillamites, Judaizing and the ‘Gospel Work of Separation’ 201 Conclusion 242 Introduction During the first decades of the seventeenth century in England, a remarkable number of small religious groups began to adopt elements of Jewish ceremonial law. In London, in South Wales, in the Chilterns and the Cotswolds, congregations revived the observation of the Saturday Sabbath.1 Thomas Woolsey, imprisoned for separatism, wrote to his co-religionists in Amsterdam to ‘prove it unlawful to eat blood and things strangled.’2 John Traske and his followers began to celebrate Passover
