Feminism, Sexuality, and the Return of Religion
That’s the title of an exciting looking conference to be held April 26-28, 2007 at Syracuse. The conference description reads as follows,
"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?"
Speakers include Cixous, Judith Butler, and bell hooks. Field trip anyone? Thanks Catherine for the tip.
