Böcker av Ursula King

An in-depth examination of Teilhard de Chardin's knowledge of the Middle and Far East, especially China, his comments on eastern religions, and his comparative reflections on mysticism and spirituality. +

Ursula King believes that women everywhere are seeking a life-affirming spirituality in response to the needs and opportunities of the age. Women and Spirituality gives a wide-ranging account of women's relations with the world's religions and the spiritual dimension of human life.

Moving from the early Christian age to modern times, with emphasis on the high points of mysticism in the medieval, early modern and Eastern Orthodox traditions, this title tells the story of people whose mystical devotion to God transformed the times in which they lived and still affects our present-day search for spiritual meaning.

Taking a critical look at feminism and exploring its explicit and implicit spiritual dimensions, this revised and updated new edition of Women and Spirituality engages in a reflective dialogue with contemporary women's voices.
