A lecture by Barbara Reid, O.P., Ph.D., Catholic Theological Union.
Rita Cassella Jones Lecture | Sponsored by the Curran Center for American Catholic Studies

This lecture will explore feminist biblical interpretation – what it is, when it began, how to do it, and why it matters for both women and men. An exercise in interpreting the death and resurrection of Jesus in the Gospel of John will be used to show the importance of how one reads and interprets the Scriptures.
