- Summary
- "This engaging volume is the contribution of a European feminist theologian to the search for a critical contextual Christology for our time. Julie M. Hopkins explores the possibility of reconstructing a spiritually dynamic and intellectually coherent Christianity that regards the Western feminist critique of Christology with utmost seriousness. Her work - holding immense significance for America as well as Europe - seeks to find a liberating path in between the Western dogmatic tradition and the outright rejection of Christology advocated by post-Christian feminist theologians. Hopkins confronts the Christological crisis squarely and suggests a way out of the impasse for those prepared to risk the encounter of the Spirit for themselves."--Jacket.
