Description: |
Renate Wind has composed a well-researched and searching biography of Dorothee Soelle (1929–2003), who became one of the most prolific and widely read religious provocateurs of the postwar period. Born in Germany and educated at the University of Cologne, Soelle turned from literary studies to theology, concentrating on rethinking Christian convictions in light of World War II and the Holocaust. A poet and activist as well as theologian, after her arrival at Union Theological Seminary in 1974, where she assumed the post previously held by Paul Tillich, Soelle became a leading voice for the liberation of women and against militarism, especially the Vietnam War. She became a pioneer and leader in political theology, feminist theology, and liberation theology. |
