About this product

Product Information

This volume analyzes historical and recent developments in female religious leadership and the larger issues shaping the scholarly debate at the intersection of gender and religious studies. Jewish activism and scholarship have been crucial in linking theology and gender issues since the early twentieth century. Academic and vocational leadership and training have had significant, concrete impact on religious communal practices and formation across the US and Europe. At the same time, these models provide important avenues of constructive dialogue and comparative ecumenical and interfaith enterprises. This volume investigates those possibilities towards constructive, activist, holistic female ministerial leadership for religious faith communities.

Reviews
Gender and Religious Leadership blends scholarly articles and reflective essays to tell the story of women's ordination as rabbis. It is an important resource for both scholars and lay readers who want to understand the trajectory of women's leadership in modern Judaism, as well as other faith traditions., This volume offers a skillful insight into the currents of research on female religious leadership. Historical investigation sits alongside engaged perspectives of activist-scholars, making this a lively collection of contributions arising from the lived experience of academic and professional life., In an age blessed by talented women taking leadership roles in religion (finally), we need thought leaders who can assess the paths already taken, and the portals yet to cross in the future. In Gender and Religious Leadership, a strong cadre of scholars assembles the examples of how women have broadened religious vitality and responsiveness across denominational and faith lines. This is first rate scholarship addressing an issue of vital importance.
