Descrição
Resumo:This article takes as its starting point the work of Irish feminist theologian Mary Condren. Her book, "The Serpent and the Goddess", offers a thought-provoking treatment of the Irish situation and provides a solid starting point for the consideration of my topic, which is the potential for liberative responses to the rise of the Celtic tiger - the economic boom that Ireland underwent during the 1990s. Ireland is interestingly placed as a country with a firm Catholic identity, a repressive history of conquest, a history of widespread poverty, a rich cultural heritage and now a strong economic life. These factors are analysed in the context of feminist liberation theology.
