'The absence of women's voices from the scriptures of the major world religions has been the subject of feminist theologians' inquiry, especially during the past three decades. Georgina Jardim's work in feminist scholarship and women's study is impressive. This book provides a fine synopsis of some of the important works in Islamic hermeneutical tradition while set in a comparative framework. As such, it is a great contribution to the comparative feminist hermeneutics of scripture.' American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences "Jardim's book is a valuable contribution to the tradition of giving women a voice in religious contexts. As her analysis is based on a non-confessional approach, it provides a valuable perspective, both outsider and insider, by using prominent female representatives from the Islamic tradition. Her mastery of the Arabic language, the Islamic source material and its Christian and Jewish counterparts, and current feminist writing gives her a solid foundation for her argumentation. Jardim's work is a good introduction to Islamic feminist thought as well as to Islamic source material in general."- Anne Sofie Roald, Malmoe University, Sweden in Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations, 2016

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
