Feminism and Faith: Exploring Christian Spaces in the Writing of Sara Maitland and Michèle Roberts by Arina LUNGU-CIRSTEA

“…Nonetheless while Maitland focused on revising Christianity by making it incorporate essential points on the feminist agenda, Roberts felt the imperious need to discard her religious identity in order to become “her own woman”; moreover, in her 2007 autobiography Paper Houses she describes her Catholic upbringing as “authoritarian and misogynistic” (16).My essay addresses questions regarding the challenge of articulating one’s spiritual identity as a concatenation of feminism and faith; with this end in mind, I am drawing a comparative perspective between Maitland’s collection of short-stories A Book of Spells, in conjunction with selected essays, on the one hand, and Roberts” acclaimed novel Daughters of the House, on the other. …”
