In a time when struggles over the place of women are paralleled by
struggles over Good versus Evil, this volume exposes the
often-veiled links between these two systems of meaning. The essays
collected here highlight the intertwining desires of gender
stability and apocalyptic truth even as they show that these
desires are often internally combustible, a clearing out of the old
to make way for new forms. Contributors explore both collusion and
collisions between feminist and apocalyptic thought, the various
ways in which apocalyptic belief functions as bodily discipline and
cultural practice, and finally, the means by which some currents of
apocalyptic desire can enable women's equality. Lee Quinby is
Professor of English at Hobart and William Smith College. Brenda
Brasher is Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Aberdeen.
