Review: "Examining feminism through the lens of Albert Camus's ethic of rebellion, Elizabeth Bartlett provides a significant new interpretation of both philosophies, revealing valuable insights, strategies, and inspiration to grapple with the issues of our day. Identifying four core components of the ethic of rebellion to provide a framework through which disparate strands of feminist theory, ethics, and spirituality can cohere and become useful. Bartlett shows how feminist thought has developed and elucidated the meanings and implications of key concepts of rebellion. Bartlett offers here a hopeful vision of a joyous, life-affirming ethic of "rebellious feminism" that resists oppression and injustice and affirms human dignity, justice and solidarity."--BOOK JACKET.
