The Grace of Difference by Marilyn J. Legge, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Marion J. Legge addresses theological ethics from the context of Canadian women - especially the experience of marginalized women in Canada. Beginning with a critical reassessment of Canadian Radical Christianity, she argues that approaches that center on question of economic justice havenevertheless overlooked the day-to-day economic realities of Canadian women. Legge develops a reformulated critical theory of culture that, though it emphasizes difference, avoids premature abstraction and misplaced generalizations. She seeks a voice to articulate the theological and ethicaldimensions of women's experience in the texts of three Canadian novels: In Search of April Raintree, by Beatrice Cullen; The Diviners, by Margaret Laurence; and Obasan, by Joy Kogawa. | The Grace of Difference by Marilyn J.
