In this book, historians of religion and gender studies explore the
biographies of a number of female leaders, and the factors within
their groups and cultural contexts that support these women's
religious leadership. New Religious Movements have been supportive
of women taking roles of leadership for a long time. Authors of
this book examine issues of gender and female leadership from
diverse theoretical and methodological standpoints. The book covers
a broad range of groups both with regard to time and place,
covering Paganism, Hindu guru groups, Christian organizations,
esoteric/ mystical movements, African churches, and a Japanese NRM.
The common focal point is the powerful, prophetic, charismatic
women who have founded and/ or led New Religious Movements.
