Engaging Body and Soul: Cultivating Feminine Wisdom focuses on how contemporary women mediate the complexity of their bodies to arrive at a spiritual awareness of themselves. The arguments in this book support the co-origination and co-participation of body and soul in the interpretation of women's lives. This book discusses the works of women poets, essayists, fiction writers, and feminist philosophers of different spiritual and sexual orientations who express their thoughts and their experiences of sexuality, and how these experiences connect with their spiritual side.
