Grace Jantzen was an internationally-renowned feminist philosopher
of religion whose work has transformed the way we think about the
interactions between religion, culture and gender in Western
culture. Jantzen's aim was to 'redeem the present' via a critique
and reconstruction of staple concepts of the Western imaginary.
This unique book brings together many of Grace Jantzen's colleagues
and former students in a wide-ranging exploration of her enduring
influence, ranging across philosophy of religion, to literature,
psychoanalysis, theology, ethics and politics. Part I assesses the
ramifications of Jantzen's affirmation that Western culture must
'choose life' in preference to a prevailing symbolic of violence
and death. Part II explores some of the key voices which
contributed to Jantzen's understanding of a culture of flourishing
and natality: Quaker thought and practice, medieval mysticism and
feminist spirituality. Further essays apply elements of Jantzen's
work to the politics of disability, development and
environmentalism, extending her range of influence into new and
innovative areas.
