Praha: Karlova univerzita, Evangelická teologická fakulta, 2017. Annotation Luise Schottroff and Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza represent two main personalities of the feministic theology of the last 40 years. Notably the American Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza, a Rumanian by origin, achieved a revolution among feministic theologians by writing the fundamental work In Memory of Her. It shows the first methodical and compact view on the issue of women in the Biblical texts. She did not focus on the texts themselves, but she deals with the circumstances of their origin, intentions of their authors, their interpretation in history, as well as outcomes for women as human beings.
