Prof. Judith Butler and bell hooks
regret to inform us that they will be unable to attend
the “Feminism, Sexuality and the Return of Religion” conference.
Prof. Butler is sending us
her paper which will be read at the conference and followed by general discussion.
We are pleased to announce that Prof. Kelly Brown Douglas has been added to the program to replace bell hooks.
A constellation of internationally prominent philosophers and theologians
gather to ask, What does the “return of religion” mean for women and for human sexuality? What new
openings for feminism and gender theory are being made by the renewed interest of intellectuals in religion? How
can we reimagine God and the divine beyond patriarchy and homophobia? How are feminist and gender theory to respond
to the worldwide resurgence of religious fundamentalisms? |
