| Zusammenfassung: | Foundations of Violence, Volume 1: Death and the Displacement of Beauty. By Grace M. Jantzen. London and New York: Routledge, 2004, 390 pp., Grace Jantzen was Professor of Religion, Culture and Gender at the University of Manchester. Using French continental philosophy, and the work of Luce Irigaray in particular, she sought to challenge the patriarchal western symbolic, built around a preoccupation with death, by providing a new imaginary of birth and natality. Her rethinking of the western philosophical and religious tradition can be seen to go back to questions in her original study God's World, God's Body (DLT, 1984). This was followed by her most popularly successful work Julian of Norwich: Mystic and Theologian (SPCK, 1987, 2nd edition 2000), which became a key text within the field. |
