摘要

文章提出了 "巴巴伊兰女权主义多重性 "这一理论概念，旨在尊重身份、身体和代理的多重性。文章反思了巴巴伊兰人、前殖民时期的女祭司、当代菲律宾女性以及同性恋变性妇女詹妮弗-劳德的历史和斗争，这些历史和斗争与从后殖民、性别和同性恋视角重新解读的《圣经》人物和叙事并行不悖。这部作品揭示了对这些段落的流行解读如何使性别暴力和剥夺权利永久化，同时反思了道成肉身、欲望和身体等神学问题。作品认为，"巴巴伊兰女权主义多重性 "允许对上帝之爱、基督的身体和人类情欲的意义进行同性恋化甚至重新想象。

Babaylan feminist multiplicity: Reclaiming Filipino women’s history and agency

The article proposes “Babaylan feminist multiplicity,” as a theoretical concept, towards the honoring of the multiplicity of identities, bodies, and agency. It reflects on the history and struggles of the Babaylan, pre-colonial priestesses, contemporary Filipino females, and a queer transgender woman, Jennifer Laude, which are paralleled with Biblical characters and narratives reinterpreted from a post-colonial, gender, and queer perspective. The work exposes how popular readings of such passages perpetuate gender violence and disempowerment while reflecting on the theological issues of incarnation, desire, and body. “ Babaylan feminist multiplicity” is argued to allow space for queering and even the reimagining of the meaning of God’s love, Christ’s body, and human eros.

期刊介绍： Critical Research on Religion is a peer-reviewed, international journal focusing on the development of a critical theoretical framework and its application to research on religion. It provides a common venue for those engaging in critical analysis in theology and religious studies, as well as for those who critically study religion in the other social sciences and humanities such as philosophy, sociology, anthropology, psychology, history, and literature. A critical approach examines religious phenomena according to both their positive and negative impacts. It draws on methods including but not restricted to the critical theory of the Frankfurt School, Marxism, post-structuralism, feminism, psychoanalysis, ideological criticism, post-colonialism, ecocriticism, and queer studies. The journal seeks to enhance an understanding of how religious institutions and religious thought may simultaneously serve as a source of domination and progressive social change. It attempts to understand the role of religion within social and political conflicts. These conflicts are often based on differences of race, class, ethnicity, region, gender, and sexual orientation – all of which are shaped by social, political, and economic inequity. The journal encourages submissions of theoretically guided articles on current issues as well as those with historical interest using a wide range of methodologies including qualitative, quantitative, and archival. It publishes articles, review essays, book reviews, thematic issues, symposia, and interviews.
