ABSTRACT
Carter Heyward's strategy of radical reinterpretation was examined in chapter three in relation to her feminist informed reinterpretation of christology. In her theology she has developed a feminist informed and often necessarily radical, reinterpretation of Christian symbols and traditions. Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza's strategy of the historical location, recovery and reconstruction of "authentic Christianity" was explored in chapter four as the second strategy of feminist Christian encounter. It was explored specifically in relation to her feminist reconstructionist approach to the recovery and elaboration of the early Christian tradition. Marcella Althaus-Reid's indecent theology presents itself as a quite different theological project to the theologies of Carter Heyward and Schiissler Fiorenza, in that Althaus-Reid makes a quite different use of feminisms in her work. As the theologies of Heyward and Schüssler Fiorenza suggest, and the theology of Althaus-Reid very strongly announces recognition of the problems of feminisms have very definite implications for feminist informed theologies.
