Toward a feminist ecclesiology of memory and hope in the context of the HIV/AIDS pandemicManske, Yvonne Janine 12 1900 (has links)
Assignment (M. Div.)--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: HIV/AIDS has a great impact on lives of all South Africans – but especially on women.
HIV/AIDS also presents the greatest threat and danger to the ones living in poverty and
without sufficient education and independence in relationships –that mostly includes South
African women. In a first chapter I will discuss the connection between poverty and
HIV/AIDS as well as between HIV/AIDS and the status of women in South Africa. In a
second chapter I want to discuss a feminist ecclesiology of memory and hope and how it is
presented by the catholic feminist theologian Elizabeth A. Johnson. In a third chapter I
want to use the feminist ecclesiology of memory and hope to link it with the context of
South Africa. In that last part I want to give a framework of the effect that a feminist
ecclesiology of memory and hope could have on the South African society. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: HIV/VIGS het 'n groot impak op die lewe van alle Suid-Afrikaners - veral op die lewens
van vroue. HIV/VIGS is ook een van die grootste bedreigings en gevare vir mense wat in
armoede leef en geen toegang het tot voldoende onderrig en onafhanklikheid in
verhoudings nie. Vroue word weereens die meeste geimpakteer. In die eerste hoofstuk sal
ek hierdie verhouding tussen armoede en HIV/VIGS bespreek sowel as tussen HIV/AIDS
en die status van vroue in Suid-Afrika. In die tweede hoofstuk wil ek die boek aangaande
’n feministiese ekklesiologie deur die katolieke feministiese teoloog Elizabeth A. Johnson
bespreek. In die derde hoofstuk wil ek hierdie feministiese ekklesiologie van herinnering
en hoop gebruik en dit toepas op die konteks van Suid-Afrika. In die laaste hoofstuk wil ek
'n raamwerk oor die effek wat hierdie feministiese ekklesiologie van herinnering en hoop
op die Suid-Afrikaanse gemeenskap kan hê, weergee.

Religion, identity and community : the religious life of Portuguese women in DurbanPereira, M. Victoria (Maria Victoria) 11 1900 (has links)
This descriptive study investigates the link between religion, (institutional and private)
identity (ethnic and personal) and the community (Portuguese and South African) in the
context of religious and cultural pluralism. It analyses sixteen Portuguese women in
Durban - nine Roman Catholics, five Protestants and two agnostic and it is executed
within the framework of the theory of conditionalism or 'radical relationality', as
expounded by J.S. Kruger.
The religious practice, experience and identity of the participants are explored, and their
social integration as well as famiIy and marital relationships (with special reference to
submissiveness) are examined in the light of Catholic Feminist theology. The influence
of their experiences on their religion and vice-versa, as well as the fluidity of their
identities are analysed.
The. results of the study highlight the paradoxical role of religion, as well as a decline in
ethnic identity and Catholicism. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M. Th. (Religious Studies)

Rekonstruksie van lewe na egskeidingDe Klerk, Willem Christian 30 November 2002 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans with summaries in Afrikaans and English / Despite the fact that many people in South Africa are affected by divorce, not much research is
done on divorce recovery.
This study on divorce recovery is shaped by a feminist theological perspective and a postmodem
social constructionist discourse. As qualitative research, narrative group work was embarked on
over a period of a year with five women who went through divorce. Through therapeutic letters
different themes emerged. These themes formed the focus for each chapter and are enriched by
relevant literature reflections.
In the first chapter the stark reality of divorce in South Africa, the discursive positioning,
epistemology and research methodology are discussed, and the stories of the participants are told.
Divorce is deconstructed by the participants as resistance to patriarchy and not only an interpersonal
crisis. The majority of claimants in divorce cases in South Africa are women.
The dominant oppressive biblical discourse that divorce is always sin is reconstructed. An
alternative religious discourse is co-constructed amongst the participants: that divorce under certain
circumstances is God's will for women who are caught in humiliating and oppressive marriages.
The various spheres of life that women reconstruct after divorce are discussed. These include:
• practical matters such as the legal proceedings, housing and finances
• emotional reconstruction where emotions such as fear. senses of guilt, and rage from a
feminist perspective view are discussed.
• reconstruction of social relations which includes aspects such as the relation with the former
husband, family, new male friends and children
• spiritual reconstruction which includes a feminist perspective on the Bible, sin, the will of
God, and also a divorce ritual
• the reconstruction of identity.
Finally the five participants' reconsructed stories are told. / Ten spyte daarvan dat baie mense in Suid-Afrika deur egskeiding geraak word, word daar nie veel
navorsing oor egskeidingsherstel gedoen nie.
Hierdie studie oor egkeidingsherstel word gedoen vanuit 'n feministies teologiese perspektief en 'n
sosiale konstruksieteorie diskoers. Oor 'n tydperk van 'n jaar is deur middel van kwalitatiewe
navorsing saam met vyf vroue wat deur egskeiding geraak is, groepswerk gedoen. Uit die
terapeutiese briewe wat geskryf is het verskillende temas uitgekristalliseer. Hierdie temas het die
grondslag gevorm vir elke hoofstuk wat deur 'n relevante literatuurstudie aangevul is.
In die eerste hoofstukke word die harde werklikhede van egskeiding, die diskoersposionering,
epistemologie en navorsingsmetodiek bespreek. Die verhale van die deelnemers word vertel.
Egskeiding word deur die deelnemers dekonstrueer as weerstand teen patriargie en nie net 'n
interpersoonlike krisis nie. Die meerderheid eisers in egskeidingsgedinge in Suid-Afrika is vroue.
Die onderdrukkend dominante Bybelse diskoers dat egskeiding altyd sonde is word rekonstrueer.
'n Alternatiewe godsdienstige diskoers, dat egskeiding vir vroue wat in vernederende en
onderdrukkend huwelik vasgevang is, onder sekere omstandighede die wil van God kan wees, word
saam met die deelnemers rekonstrueer.
Die verskillende lewensterreine wat vroue na egskeiding rekonstrueer, word bespreek. Dit sluit in:
• praktiese aangeleenthede soos die regsproses, behuising en finansies
• emosionele rekonstruksie wat emosies soos angs, skuldgevoelens en woede word vanuit 'n
feministiese perspektiefbespreek
• spirituele rekonstruksie wat 'n feministiese perspektief op die Bybel, sonde, die wil van God
en 'n egskeidingsritueel insluit
• die rekonstruksie van identiteit
Ten slotte word die vyf deelnemers se nuwe verhale vertel. / Practical Theology / D.Th. (Pastoral Therapy)

Women storying HIV/AIDS in communityNieuwmeyer, Susan Mary 11 1900 (has links)
The research is about African women living with HIV and women
grieving the death of loved ones as a result of AIDS. We discuss
the women's preferred care for the ill person and for the family as
well as for the bereaved family. We consider together the effects
of HIV/AIDS in the community: the stigma attached to the disease
and the fears of people that they may contract HIV. The women
and I acknowledge the closely woven relationships between faith
and culture in a predominantly Xhosa community.
Participatory action research is used and contextual feminist
theology within a postmodern social construction approach to
narrative pastoral therapy. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / M.Th. (Practical Theology)
