An anthology of seminal articles written by feminist scholars over a period of nearly 30 years which have had a major influence on the development of feminist theories of religion. The selected readings are wide-ranging in content and offer a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural perspective and reflect the work of scholars working within religious studies as well as scholars from other disciplines such as Nancy Chodorow and Judith Butler. The introductory essays by the volume editor linking some of the sections are packed with information about and reflections upon questions, resources, issues and debates vis-a-vis feminism and the study of religions. The book shows how debates about feminism within the study of religion have been influenced by broader theoretical discussions and provides evidence that feminist scholars working on religion have made their own contribution to feminist theory.

This volume provides a thorough introduction to the major classic and modern writings dealing with religious sacrifice. Collected here are twenty five influential selections, each with a brief introduction addressing the overall framework and assumptions of its author. As they present different theories and examples of sacrifice, these selections also discuss important concepts in religious studies such as the origin of religion, totemism, magic, symbolism, violence, structuralism and ritual performance. Students of comparative religion, ritual studies, the history of religions, the anthropology of religion and theories of religion will particularly value the historical organization and thematic analyses presented in this collection.
