Presenting a fresh look at the contemporary issue of women's place
in the Catholic church, Tina Beattie explores controversial, yet
topical subjects, such as sex and homosexuality in the Church;
women's rights in Catholicism and the future of the Church. Setting
up a dramatic encounter between the orthodox Catholic establishment
and contemporary critical theory, including feminist theology and
philosophy, queer theory, and French psycholinguistics, Tina
Beattie examines fundamental questions about human identity,
personhood and gender. From the naked bodies of Eden to the 'gay
nuptials' of liturgy, she argues that the strange and volatile
world of Catholic sexual symbolism cannot be 'tamed' to meet the
ideological agendas of either feminist theology or conservative
Catholicism. Only through a radical re-evaluation of the
sacramental significance of the sexed human body might the Catholic
Church provide a redemptive response to the sexual politics of
contemporary society.
