Female prophetic leadership: An exploration of its liberative future in present-day Jewish patriarchal religious structure

这项研究听取了已故拉比希拉·舒尔曼（Rabbi Sheila Shulman）的女权主义呼吁，呼吁采取“先知立场”，改变世界（2005）。作为一名女拉比，既要担任先知的职位（以个人魅力、厌女症和以男性为中心的权威为基础），又要在男权制度中工作，这一角色并没有考虑到女性，这是一项极具挑战性的工作。该项目的目的是确定阻碍英国女性犹太神职人员的障碍，并通过神圣的文本和步入先知一起，解构支撑社会和宗教机构的压迫系统。

This research heeds the feminist call to action of the late Rabbi Sheila Shulman to take up a "prophetic position" and change the world (2005). As a female rabbi, assuming prophetic position (predicated on charisma, misogyny, and androcentric authority), while also working within patriarchal institutions in a role not created with women in mind, is profoundly challenging. The purpose of this project is to identify the obstructions impeding UK female Jewish clergy, and through sacred texts and stepping into the prophetic together, to deconstruct systems of oppression underpinning social and religious institutions.
