<p>"Complex and textured, this study in ambiguity a la Julia Kristeva offers intellectual challenges and spiritual questions. It is for a sophisticated reader who wants to enter into the delights of technical theological wrestling." – <em>WATERwheel</em></p><p>"An intermingling of sophisticated exploration of poststructuralist thought with concrete existential concerns of women … Anita Monro has written a valuable book. It is a book that is worth reading carefully." – <em>Theology and Sexuality</em></p>

'Resurrecting Erotic Transgression' presents a feminist theological methodology based on the work of Julia Kristeva. This methodology provides the means for 'subjecting ambiguity', bringing to theology a recognition of the multiplicity of language and identity. A method of 'poetic reading' is proposed with a three stage process: articulation of the dualities present in and around a focal discourse; subversion of these dualities through a range of strategies; and the re-presentation of the discourse emphasising its ambiguous nature. The hermeneutical method of 'poetic reading' is explored in relation to three biblical texts and an image of the 'otherness' of God as whore.
