| Summary: | The article intends to show how the ideas of Tillich influenced many feminist thinkers, especially in the field of religious studies, and continue providing insights to feminist theologians in the world today. After a brief overview of the critical incorporation of Tillichs ideas in feminist reflection, especially concerning the passage of a predominantly masculine symbolism for the feminist, two topics are offered to the current debate: the critical use of tillichian approach of ethics and the religion of the concrete spirit. In both cases, it is to reconcile the universal with the particular. Feminist authors as Mary Daly, Elizabeth Johnson, Morny Joy and Sally McFague are brought into the discussion on the subject. |
