 SOPHIAExplore a panoramic view of Sophia, the feminine aspect of God, from the Old Testament throughout Christian history, with a special focus on the Middle ages, the Reformation, the Russian Orthodoxy, the contemporary German Sophiologist Otfried Eberz, and Sophia in Eastern religions. Dr. Susanne Schaup links these historical glimpses with the present, and shows the need for Sophia, Divine Feminine Wisdom, in our own lives. Dr. Susanne Schaup From the editor :
Special Interest: Theology, Feminine, Goddess, Religion, Occult. Our Price: $18.95 |
In Eastern culture, the concept of the coexistence of the feminine and masculine within the divine is commonly accepted. But in the West, we have overemphasized the masculine in the divine, and we have seen many global tragedies as a result. Now, we are seeking to regain balance, as evidenced in the resurgent interest in the wisdom of the Goddess and ancient matriarchal religions. But, as Dr. Schaup's work explains, the Divine Feminine has been with us all along, hidden in ancient Christian scripture, and taking many different forms and names in Eastern and Western culture alike. She is Sophia, or Divine Wisdom. Dr. Schaup heralds a paradigm shift in our concept of God with this provocative chronicle of the manifestation of the Divine Feminine throughout history and in the world's diverse cultures. By tracing Sophia's presence, Dr. Schaup's work does not simply advocate a return to matriarchal worship, but serves as a beacon in the quest of our time to overcome alienation between human and nature, man and woman, human and God.
Dr. Schaup explores Lady Wisdom in Biblical Scripture, Sophia in the Old Testament, Lilith, and Sophia's counterparts in the Andean, Hindu, and Chinese religions. Examining the patriarchal dilemma, Dr. Schaup brings to light the work of Christian mystics such as Hildegard of Bingen, Jacob Boehme, and the Russian Sophiologists. She places emphasis on the work of Otfried Eberz, a contemporary Sophiologist who makes a radical appeal to modern women to reclaim the consciousness of the Goddess. Dr. Schaup shows Sophia to be a universal figure, representing wisdom, femininity, motherhood, and sexuality. She writes especially for women coming from a Christian background who are interested in expanding their quest for spiritual wholeness.View Basket Secure Checkout
