Women, Earth, and Creator Spirit

More about the book

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.
