Call for Papers
Power, Authority, Love: Writing, Rites, and Right
We warmly invite scholars, activists, artists and other practitioners to explore and expound feminist understandings of power, authority and love, both as distinct concepts or experiences and in the interrelatedness. The scope of papers is broad. Diverse contributions will, however, be connected through one of three lenses:
- “writing”—focusing on engagement with feminist theological work on power, authority or love;
- “rites”—focusing on ritual expressions of power, authority or love informed by feminist theology;
- “right”—focusing on getting power, authority or love “right” in practice from feminist perspective.
Presentations of 20 minutes (only and firmly) will be followed by 15 minutes discussion.
