The feminine (he)art of giving and the power of feminine divine as new ethics of peace and eco-justice - keynote lecture

The presentation adresses the question how femininity and the maternal body might be also important in shaping the discourse of giving, forgiving and caring. Consideration of a view of the maternal body as signi?cation, conceived of as an embodiment of an ethics is investigated. To bear someone like a maternal body suggests that one need not to be a mother, or indeed a woman, to bear responsibility for the Other (including nature). The cultivation of giving and forgiving as embodied experiance and examination of inter-connectedness of giving and forgiving from feminist perception is examined.
