Power, Gender and Christian Mysticism - Cambridge Studies in Ideology and Religion
Jantzen, Grace M. (University of Manchester)
In western Christianity, the mystic was seen as having direct access to God and great authority. Men controlled who counted as a mystic: women were excluded. Dr Jantzen's philosophical argument takes issues of gender seriously and makes use of them for a deconstructive approach to Christian mysticism.
