Biography
Jaimee van Gemerden holds a PhD in theology from the University of Otago, New Zealand.
“Jaimee van Gemerden’s monograph is the book Feminist Theology needs right now! Powerfully challenging and richly theological, she tackles the central question of self-realisation, long troublesome for Christian women, and offers a bold and constructive new response that will shape both the field of Feminist Theology and the real lives of women for generations to come.”
Dr Karen O’Donnell, Westcott House, Cambridge
“Dr. Jaimee van Gemerden convincingly articulates the problem within Christian theology of self-abnegation. She weaves positive existentialist ontologies together with Kathryn Tanner’s non-competitive view of divine-human relating to develop a constructive approach to the self. Clearly written and cogently defended, van Gemerden offers the world of Christian theology a gift through this work.”
Dr Christa McKirland, Carey Baptist College, Auckland
