  1. The metaphysics of ethical love: Comparing practical vedanta and feminist ethics.Vrinda Dalmiya - 2009 - Sophia 48 (3):221-235.
    In this paper I compare two very different deployments of love in ethics. Swami Vivekananda's concept of ethical love ties into the project of constructing an alternative masculinity for a colonized people; while feminist care ethics uses love to escape the perceived masculinity of traditional ethical theory. Using Kenneth Goodpaster's distinction between ‘framework questions’ and ‘application questions,’ I try to show that love in Practical Vedanta addresses the former while feminist care ethics concerns itself with the latter. Even though this (...)

  • On the lap of necessity: A mythic reading of Teresa Brennan's energetics philosophy.Jane Caputi - 2001 - Hypatia 16 (2):1-26.

  • Wheeling time: What is a workable concept of time from a feminist theological perspective?Mirjam Murphy - unknown
    The feminist theological literature highlights certain weaknesses in the traditional Christian understanding of eschatology, death and the concept of time. Many feminist theologians reject the linear time concept and the idea of final, fixed eschatology in which death is an enemy to be conquered and flourishing is postponed and reserved to another time and space. However, an alternative convincing vision for a concept of time in which eschatology and death have a place and meaning that is congruent with the feminist (...)
