| Summary: | This piece highlights the important contribution of the historical project of Mujerista Theology, as conceptualized and formulated by Ada María Isasi-Díaz, to the discourses of biblical criticism and Political Theology. With regard to the former, it is argued that mujerista interpretation interacts with key developments in biblical criticism, such as liberation hermeneutics (focus on liberation from domination, by way of critical engagement with biblical texts), literary criticism (focus on Latinas as real readers) and ideological criticism (focus on Latinas as minority readers). With respect to the latter, it is argued that Mujerista Theology represents an excellent example of Political Theology (focus on Cuba as political imaginary and as grounds for theological reflection and action). |
