Spirit, Structure, and Flesh: Gendered Experiences in African Instituted Churches Among the Yoruba of Nigeria - Africa and the Diaspora: History, Politics, Culture
Deidre Helen Crumbley
How does having a female body affect one's experience of indigenized Christianity in Africa? This title addresses this question by exploring the ways ritual, symbol, and dogma circumscribe, constrain, and liberate women in AICs (variously, African Initiated, African Instituted, or African Independent Churches).
