AZCUY, Virginia R. Exégesis y teología en la encrucijada: Teología feminista e interpretación feminista de la Biblia: una aproximación. Teol. vida [online]. 2012, vol.53, n.1-2, pp. 163-192. ISSN 0049-3449.  doi: 10.4067/S0049-34492012000100008.

The increasing development of the feminist interpretation of the Bible and of feminist theologies, whose perspectives seek to promote the dignity of women and of all creatures from the standpoint of the Christian faith, poses major challenges for exegesis and theology as disciplines. This study attempts to present an overview of feminist theology and a dialogue with four American pioneers of the biblical area, which are partly based on contributions from the collective research of the Teologanda Program that has been conducted since 2003 in Argentina. As an example, a feminist interpretation of Jn 4,1-42 according to Sandra Schneiders is presented as well as a conclusion with some open reflections on the proposed subject.

Keywords : interpretation of the Bible in the Church; feminist approach; female perspective feminist theology; feminist interpretation of the Bible.
