WOMEN AND RELIGION IN THE WORLD
Lillian Ashcraft-Eason, Darnise C. Martin,
Oyeron
ke Olademo, Editors
Afro-Cuban priestesses. Raneesh lovers. The Earths
among the Nation of Gods and Earths.
Neo-Pagan
witches.
Both the religions that originated in Africa and found a
place in the New World and those New religions that
have emerged over the past half-century, offer fascinating
and often empowering roles to women believers
—
roles that
reveal much about the overall attitudes toward women in
those societies.
This probing and thought-provoking series of
essays brings together in one volume the multifaceted
experiences of women in the New and
Africana
religions
as practiced today. With this work, religion becomes a
lens for examining the lives of present-day women of
diverse ethnicities and nationalities across the social
spectrum.
In Women and New and
Africana
Religions, readers
hear from women from a number of religious/spiritual
persuasions around the world, including Africa, Asia, the
Caribbean, South America, and North America. These
voices form the core of remarkable explorations of family
and environment, social and spiritual empowerment,
sexuality and power, and ways in which world view
informs roles in religion and society. Each of the topically
arranged essays include scene-setting historical and social
background information and fascinating insights from
renowned scholars sharing their own cutting-edge research
and firsthand experiences with their subjects.
Lillian Ashcraft-Eason, PhD, has taught at several
universities and currently is professor of history, initiator,
and former chair of the
Africana
studies program, and
director of the Benin Seminar at Bowling Green State
University in Bowling Green, OH. Dr. Ashcraft-Eason is
author of books and numerous articles in the field of black
religion and history, and she currently is completing a book-
length manuscript on
Africana
women and religion in the
British North American Colonies.
Darnise C. Martin is assistant professor at Loyola
Marymount University in Los Angeles, CA, where she
teaches courses in African American studies and theological
studies. Her published works include Beyond Christianity:
African Americans in a New Thought Church. She continues
research on the influence of New Thought religions upon
contemporary prosperity ministries.
Oyeronke Olademo, PhD, is senior lecturer at the
University of
llorín
in Nigeria, where she has taught and
researched on comparative religions and women in
religion for the past
19
years. Research conducted during
Dr. Olademo s visiting scholar tenure in the women s
studies program of Harvard University resulted in a book
on women in the Yoruba religious sphere.
