Paperback. Why do so many women of faith have such a strong aversion to feminism? And why do so many feminists have an ardent mistrust of religion? These questions are at the heart of Helen LaKelly Hunt's illuminating look at the alliance between spiritual conviction and social action. Intelligent and heartfelt, Faith and Feminism offers a perceptive look at the lives of five spirited and spiritual women of history, women who combined their undying faith with feminist beliefs and who made the world a better place by doing so. * St. Teresa of Avila, a woman whose bravery in confronting her shadows gave her the strength to connect with the world and live a life of divine action. * Lucretia Mott, a Quaker minister, who rose from her quiet upbringing to become a passionate speaker and activist working tirelessly on behalf of justice and peace. * Sojourner Truth, a Christian slave, who spoke out with unwavering courage to claim her God-given rightful place as an African American and a woman. * Emily Dickinson, an extraordinary poet, who touched the world with her ability to capture and transform the experience of suffering.* Dorothy Day, a radical journalist, who lived a life of voluntary poverty as a way of expressing her passion for the Christian faith and care for those in need. A remarkable book that focuses on the idea that spirituality and feminism are really different expressions of the same impulse to make life more whole, Faith and Feminism offers a powerful catalyst for reflecting on our sense of self -- and for living and loving according to our deepest values. Focusing on the invaluable human traits of strength, character, and spirituality, well-known psychologist and author Hunt showcases the lives of five remarkable women and the different ways each combined her faith and feminist perspectives to enact change in her own community and the world.
