- W603920331 abstract "Body and Sexuality is a pathfinding volume, which breaks the silence around the long-held taboo of women’s sexuality in Asian Christian communities. Based on the papers from the second conference of the Ecclesia of Women in Asia held in Yogyakarta in November 2004, the anthology provides biblical and theological grounding for Asian Christian women to affirm their body and dignity. It makes significant contributions to Asian feminist theology and is an invaluable resource for churches, clergy, seminarians, and pastoral workers who are committed to women’s emancipation and liberation. The anthology is interdisciplinary in nature and broad in scope, including discussions on Body and Sexuality; Asian Societies/World; Body and Scriptures; Sacramentality of Women’s Bodies; Sexuality and Church Leadership; and Images of God’s Body. The authors engage feminist biblical and theological literature, as well as gender theory, women’s psychology, queer theory, and Asian philosophy and religions. Together they criticize the dualistic construction of spirit and body in Christianity and lift up emancipatory elements in various Asian traditions that are life-affirming for women. Never before have we seen such a plurality of female subjects entering into Asian theological discourse. We have theological reflections on Filipina domestic workers, female sex workers, lesbians, butches/femmes, older women, and victims of clergy sexual abuse. By attending to bodies in their particularities, the anthology testifies to the commitment to diversity and inclusivity of the Ecclesia of Women in Asia. The use of body as a heuristic key to interpret scriptures offers fresh insights and promising results. For example, an intercultural reading between Pauline body theology in 1 Corinthians and Asian understanding of body points to new possibilities in conceptualizing the Christian community. The bent body of a woman (Lk. 13:10-17) becomes an occasion for critique of patriarchal culture then and now. The presence of women’s bodies standing silently near the cross" @default.
