Women in Aphrahat: Some Observations, Paperback / softback Book

Women in Aphrahat: Some Observations Paperback / softback

Part of the Analecta Gorgiana series

Paperback / softback

Out of stock

Description

Fourth-century Aphrahat is characterized as misogynist, especially when he compares women to Satan.

This may be an unintended result of contemporary Christian literature.

The the eschatological context of Aphrahat's asceticism, salvific role of Mary, victimization in Aphrahat's work, and positive statements about women negotiate this view.
