Once in awhile we are confronted with a person's life and insight so remarkable, we pause to reflect upon our own beliefs, meaning, maturing, theory and theology. This memoir of Pauline Thompson encompasses the astonishing life and career of a twentieth-century woman, a life that variously embraced religious symbolism, Jungian analysis, protests and arrests, careers in education and medicine, as well as relationships ranging from bigamous to bisexual. Writing Pauline: Wisdom From A Long Life explores how Thompson's reflections pose challenges to our common and academic notions of feminist theory, ethical development, Christian theology, Jungian psychology, and ethnographic research.
Gail J. Stearns is Director of the Common Ministry and Adjunct Faculty in the Honor's College as well as Women's Studies Department at Washington State University, Pullman, Washington. Professor Stearns earned her Ph.D. at Washington State University.
