Reviews
Wilcox's study demonstrates how much scholars of religion have to learn about religion by attending to its parodic representations. This book is therefore essential reading in American religions and in queer studies., "Wilcox, chair of Religious Studies at UC-Riverside, has written an ambitious analysis of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a worldwide "order" of drag queens that originated in San Francisco in the late 1970s as the gay rights movement was gaining momentum", A serious study of serious parody. Melissa Wilcox shows how the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence have combined a certain lightness of being with a definite seriousness of purpose to create performative politics and religious practices that open onto a very different world than the one in which we find ourselves. Wilcox brings a scholarly richness and wonderful intelligence to the Sisters stories, offering a lesson about how to live in times when parody is the best, if not the only, way to communicate with any seriousness., "Wilcox beautifully demonstrates how serious political and social engagement can emerge from queer religious camp. In short, this book piles fascinating and novel theoretical engagement upon great historical and sociological narrative--it's a must read!"-Anthony M. Petro,author of After the Wrath of God: AIDS, Sexuality, and American Religion, "An important contribution to queering religious studies [...] this book will prove equally useful (in whole or in part) within introductory courses on religious studies ("in America" or "and politics," for instance) and queer studies as well as upper-level investigations of theory and method for the study of religion. Students will find this text both outrageously entertaining and thought-provoking, and Wilcox is especially adept at coherently synthesizing and making use of concepts from across the academy--like "disidentification" and "homonormativity"--as well as terms and practices from queer life and activism.", "In this interdisciplinary tour de force, Melissa M. Wilcox draws from history, sociology, queer studies, and religious studies to understand the origins, cultural politics, and religious landscape of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a network of men who describe themselves as "queer nuns" dedicated to "'the promulgation of universal joy and the expiation of stigmatic guilt'" (their mission, as quoted on p. 15). Since their formation in 1979, the Sisters have been at the forefront of queer activism. Wilcox's detailed and analytically rich account of the Sisters' history, activism, and growth draws from an array of archival records and an impressive number of interviews. In addition, Wilcox's development of the theoretical concept of "serious parody" charts how religious studies and queer studies can intersect in unexpected ways.", A serious study of serious parody. Melissa Wilcox shows how the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence have combined a certain lightness of being with a definite seriousness of purpose to create performative politics and religious practices that open onto a very different world than the one in which we find ourselves. Wilcox brings a scholarly richness and wonderful intelligence to the Sisters' stories, offering a lesson about how to live in times when parody is the best, if not the only, way to communicate with any seriousness.-Janet Jakobsen,Claire Tow Professor of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Barnard College, Columbia University, Wilcox's study is rigorously researched, beautifully crafted and highly readable. It invites us to rethink what it is to queer spirituality, to be religious and do religion in the 21st century.., Wilcox (religious studies, Univ. of California, Riverside) has a sterling record of scholarship on queer theory in religion. Here she offers a history and critical assessment of the work of LGBTQ activists who consider themselves nuns ... Readers benefit from not only the author's extensive field work but also her commitment to critical theory and ability to see power dynamics., Wilcox beautifully demonstrates how serious political and social engagement can emerge from queer religious camp. In short, this book piles fascinating and novel theoretical engagement upon great historical and sociological narrative--it's a must read!
