There are a number of participant accounts of the revival of Goddess religion among feminists in Europe, America and Australasia. But students and others interested in issues in the relation of religion, theo/alogy and gender need an accessible and concise critical overview of this contemporary religious phenomenon and its discourses. Introducing Thealogy, which offers a contextual analysis of the thealogy, ontology, historiography and ethics of various types of Goddess feminism, is designed to meet that need.
Melissa Raphael is Professor of Jewish Theology at the University of Gloucestershire, UK.
