Self, Culture, and Others in Womanist Practical Theology PDF
by P. Sheppard
Part of the Black Religion/Womanist Thought/Social Justice series
Description
Self, Culture, and Others in Womanist Practical Theology argues for a critical engagement between womanist theology and psychoanalytic Self Psychology.
Sheppard's position is that a psychoanalytically informed womanist practical theology will more fully account for the complexities of black women's experiences of self and black embodiment as well as the role of religion and cultural objects in self understanding.
This psychoanalytic turn allows us not only to examine practices of care in relation to black women but also to direct a psychoanalytic lens toward womanist theological anthropology, embodiment, pedagogy, psychology of religion, as well as psychoanalytic reader response to engagement with scripture.
In the end, her work challenges and advances both psychoanalysis and womanist thought.
