First published 2013. This ground-breaking book examines the lives of two extraordinary, religious women. Both Edith Stein and Regina Jonas were German Jewish women who demonstrated 'deviant' religious desires as they pursued their spiritual paths to serve their communities during the Holocaust. Both were religious visionaries viewed as iconoclasts in their own times. Stein, the first woman to receive a doctorate in philosophy from Husserl, the founder of phenomenology, claimed her Jewish identity while she was still a cloistered Carmelite nun. Jonas, the first woman rabbi in Jewish history, served as a rabbi in Berlin and Theresienstadt concentration camp. A study of a contemplative and a rabbi, the book ranges across many spiritual and theological questions, not least it offers a remarkable exploration of the theology of spiritual resistance. For Stein, this meant redemption and the transmutation of suffering on the cross; for Jonas, acts of compassion bring the face of God into our presence.

"An innovative reading of the lives and thought of Edith Stein and Regina Jones--a significant and highly readable contribution to both queer theology and studies of the Holocaust." -- Melissa Raphael, University of Gloucestershire "Emily Leah Silverman has written a fascinating and penetrating study on Edith Stein, a Catholic Jewish Carmelite nun, in comparison with Regina Jonas, Jewish rabbi. Both were executed by the Nazis in Auschwitz, though two years apart. Silverman's analysis offers creative insights into religious, gendered, and mixed identities. She explores their desires and visions; she reflects of their crossing of boundaries and she offers a theology of liberation of resistance. A remarkable study that breaks out of traditional modes of approach and offers new insights." -- Francis Schussler Fiorenza, Harvard Divinity School This ground-breaking book examines the lives of two extraordinary, religious women. Both Edith Stein and Regina Jonas were German Jewish women who demonstrated "deviant" religious desires as they pursued their spiritual paths to serve their communities during the Holocaust. Both were religious visionaries viewed as iconoclasts in their own times.
