Logia Scholar Database
Below is a categorized list of women scholars from across the Divinity disciplines spanning the 19th-21st centuries. This list is not exhaustive but includes over 500 women who have published full-length books or book chapters within one of these areas (though some have published in more than one area). Given the interdisciplinary nature of many of these women’s work, the categorizations are not fixed, but will hopefully serve as a starting point for those wanting to learn from these scholars and integrate women’s scholarship into their course readings. The academic level of the intended audience also varies based upon each author’s purpose.
If you fit the above criteria and would like to be added to this list, or know of other scholars who should be added to this list, please email [email protected] and include the scholar’s name and under which category she should be placed.
Please note: We are currently in the process of updating this page to include a more comprehensive overview of each scholar’s work and contributions to their field. We are also working to make the database easier to navigate and search through so as to better assist its patrons in their research. We thank you for your patience as we complete this work.
