Elizabeth A. Johnson

    Dr. Johnson's theological work critically examines the place of women within religious traditions. A pioneering feminist theologian, she champions the incorporation of feminine metaphors and language into understandings of the divine. Her scholarship is deeply rooted in a commitment to social justice, notably influenced by the martyrdom of women missionaries in El Salvador. Dr. Johnson's approach seeks to bridge rigorous academic inquiry with tangible support for the oppressed.

      Exploring the connections between the treatment of women and the environment, Elizabeth Johnson updates her 1993 lecture in this revised edition. She argues that the degradation of the natural world and the erosion of women's status have worsened, influenced by rising religious fundamentalism. Johnson highlights how perceptions of nature as "feminine" contribute to its exploitation, revealing a deeper critique of patriarchal structures that govern both women and the earth. The work calls for a reevaluation of these intertwined issues in contemporary society.
