These essays in honor of Elizabeth Schussler Fiorenza draw on international feminist scholarship indebted to her ground-breaking achievements. The body of her work up to now ensures her a prominent place in the history and the future of biblical studies, feminist thought, ecumenical studies, and revitalization movements worldwide. That prominence can only grow: in biblical studies when gender and kyriarchal analysis in not as marginal as it is today in many quarters; in feminist studies in general, when the subject of religion is once more central and of interest to a wide audience, and when gender analysis is expanded to include the intertwined structures of domination; in ecumenical studies, when the focus and concerted effort to address issues of Christian anti-Judiasm and to deal with gender issues in fundamentalism become a standard; in revitalization movements, when education in her seven steps of a critical theory of interpretation is even more widely expanded.
