Synopsis:
Spiritual experience has always been, and is especially today, a liberating source of women's identity and their resistance to oppression. This pathbreaking anthology represents 2,000 years of the prophetic and practical wisdom of women's spirituality, featuring writings that range from Ishtar of Babylonia and Isis of Egypt to the medieval mystic Hildegard of Bingen to contemporary African-American poet Lucille Clifton and Buddhist shaman Joan Hilfax.
