She Who Changes by Carol P Christ
Drawing on the work of process philosopher Charles Hartshorne, Carol P. Christ offers intellectual foundations for deeply held feelings about the meanings of female images of divine power. This book is addressed to everyone who has ever wondered about the implications of re-imagining God as female.
CAROL P. CHRIST (Ph.D. Yale, 1974) is a pioneer in the study of Women and Religion and in the Goddess and Women's Spirituality movements. The anthologies Womanspirit Rising (1979) and Weaving the Visions (1989) which she co-edited with Judith Plaskow transformed the way religion is understood and taught in North America. Her first book Diving Deep and Surfacing (1980) changed women's lives and became a classic in the study of women and religion. Laugher of Aphrodite (1987) and Odyssey with the Goddess (1995) chart her spiritual and intellectual journey from God to Goddess; while Rebirth of the Goddess (1997) is the first feminist Goddess thealogy. In She Who Changes, CAROL P. CHRIST continues the work she began years ago of providing intellectual foundations for deeply held feelings about the meaning of changing life, the body, relationship, interconnection, and the need for female images of divine power. She has received several fellowships from the National Endowment from the Humanities and has taught at Pomona College, Harvard Divinity School, and Columbia University. In 1987 she resigned a tenured full professorship at San Jose State University to move to Greece, where she has recently become a citizen of her adopted country. She directs Ariadne Institute for the Study of Myth and Ritual, offering Goddess Pilgrimages to Crete and a Sacred Journey in Greece (www.goddessariadne.org). She has been active in feminist, peace, and environmental movements for decades.
