Sarah Coakley draws both liberal and conservative camps into a new and serious reflection on ascetical theology. Each chapter of New Asceticism concentrates on a contentious issue in contemporary theology - the role of women in the churches, homosexuality and the priesthood, celibacy and the future of Christian asceticism - in an original thesis about the nature of desire which may start to heal many contemporary wounds. Professor Coakley is as familiar with the Bible and the Early Fathers as she is with the writings of Freud and Jung, and she draws heavily on Gregory of Nyssa's theology of desire in what she proposes. She points the way through the false modern alternatives of repression and libertarianism, agape and eros, recovering a way in which desire can be freed from associations with promiscuity and disorder, and forging a new asceticial vision founded in the disciplines of prayer and attention.
