An Ecofeminist Perspective on Ash Wednesday and Lent develops a
conversation between classical historical Lenten practices and
contemporary Christian ecofeminism. Building on David Tracy's
definition of a religious classic, it includes a historical
examination of the development of Lent and the Ash Wednesday rites
beginning from wellsprings in the early church traditions of
penance, catechumenal preparation, and asceticism through medieval
and reformation expressions of the rite to their twentieth-century
Episcopal iteration in the 1979 Book of Common Prayer. In the
discussion of ecofeminism, women's death experiences and current
ecofeminist writings are used to develop an ecofeminist hermeneutic
of mortality.
