She can avoid the most patriarchal aspects of the theological tradition and seek resources for constructive work elsewhere. Or she can critique misogynistic texts and artifacts, exposing their strategies of domination to warn against replicating them. Both approaches have merits and yet, without other interpretive strategies, they reaffirm that the theological tradition does not belong to women and others marginalized by gender. They cannot transform the discourse. But within feminist theology are the seeds of another approach, aimed at just such transformation by reworking the theological landscape to become hospitable to all those marginalized by gender. \u003cem\u003eAttunement: The Art and Politics of Feminist Theology\u003c\/em\u003e identifies trajectories resonant with this alternative approach and from them, describes and develops attunement as a third, generative path for feminist theologians. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAttunement is an aesthetically-invested approach to texts and artifacts that self-consciously co-creates as it interprets. Aware of what the text affords the reader, attunement constellates images, texts, and insights to build or augment positive affordances in the text and diminish negative ones. Natalie Carnes describes why this approach is significant for feminist theology, maps its roots in a long history of gender-marginalized individuals claiming authority, describes how it casts interpretation as both an aesthetic and political event, and notes how it might provide a way forward in vexed topics in feminist theology.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNatalie Carnes\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Theology and Affiliated Faculty in Women's and Gender Studies at Baylor University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 07, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51495892648224,"sku":"9780197765623","price":68.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/3678\/2112\/files\/e72ef6cf4ddb3c451a4db3d8b3bdf10e.webp?v=1776531014","url":"https:\/\/treewee.store\/products\/attunement-the-art-and-politics-of-feminist-theology-paperback","provider":"Tree of Life","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
