On the Cutting Edge The Study of Women in the Biblical World Essays in Honor of Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza

These essays in honor of Professor Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza draw on international feminist scholarship indebted to her groundbreaking achievements in the areas of biblical studies, feminist thought and social justice. The contributors represent a wide variety of backgrounds, commitments, methodologies, talents, and interests. They are united here by their appreciation for her as scholar, teacher, mentor, colleague and friend. The spectrum is full of vitality, with important convergences and intersections. It exemplifies what Scussler Fiorenza has called "critical collaboration": women thinking together and creating together. This Festschrift is unique in that it celebrates the work of all women in the field.Schaberg, Jane is the author of 'On the Cutting Edge The Study of Women in the Biblical World Essays in Honor of Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza', published 2003 under ISBN 9780826415820 and ISBN 0826415822.
