Description
Summary:Denise J.J. Dijk in her article portrays the feminist liturgical movement in the United States of America. In Dijk's view this is a particularly active and influential innovative movement compared with the situation in Western Europe. Dijk outlines the feminist trends and theological developments which have contributed to this movement, and draws particular attention to the significance of 'evangelical feminism'. She focuses on the most important centres, activities and publications of the movement as it is currently developing within and between various churches in the United States. Dijk focuses on two areas in order to illustrate the effects of this innovative movement within the church and theology. First, she shows the changes in the field of liturgy which the feminist liturgical movement has introduced into a large number of churches, particularly the initiatives for inclusive language. Second, Dijk describes the changes which the movement is bringing about within liturgical studies. The initiatives of theological women's studies in the liturgy form, in Dijk's view, part of the emphasis on horizontalising power and spatial relationships, breaking down rigid dividing lines between the sacred and profane, and placing the centra! focus on the female subject.
