'Political Bodies/Body Politic' draws on feminism, gender studies, and queer theory to examine how myth, symbol and ritual express belief systems. The book explores the operation of gender in a variety of social and historical contexts, ranging from feminist speculative fiction and systems of belief to popular culture and ancient historical texts. 'Political Bodies/Body Politic' makes an original contribution to religious and feminist studies in its examination of gender in human communication and belief systems.
Darlene M. Juschka is an associate professor in Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Regina. In her interdisciplinary work she brings together feminist theorizing, ritual and myth studies and the new phenomenology of religion. Among others, she has published Feminist and the Study of Religion: A Reader (ed.) 2000; Spectacles of Gender: Enacting the Masculine in Ancient Rome and Modern Cinema.A" 2005; GenderA" 2005; and Cladistics, Morphologies, Taxonomies and the Comparative Study of Religion.A" 2004.
