Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This collection of essays in the Bible and Women series examines ancient noncanonical Christian texts for what they reveal about women, their engagement with Scripture, and attitudes toward women in various texts from the second to eighth century. Contributors focus on historical women and their active roles in early Christianity, women as rhetorical tools in male-dominated discourse, and female figures in early Christian mythologies.
