Janet Martin Soskice (born 16 May 1951)[1] is a Canadian-born English Roman Catholic theologian and philosopher. Soskice was educated at Somerville College, Oxford.[2] She is professor of philosophical theology and a fellow of Jesus College at the University of Cambridge. Her theological and philosophical work has dealt with the role of women in Christianity,[3] religious language, and the relationship between science and religion.[4]
Her book The Sisters of Sinai details the history of the discovery of the Syriac Sinaiticus by Agnes and Margaret Smith.[5] Soskice has also written that she became religious following a very "dramatic but banal" religious experience.[6]
