Constructions of Gender in Religious Traditions of Late Antiquity, Hardback Book

Constructions of Gender in Religious Traditions of Late Antiquity Hardback

Edited by Shayna Sheinfeld, Juni Hoppe, Kathy Ehrensperger

Hardback

Description

This volume examines questions concerning the construction of gender and identity in the earliest days of what is now Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

Methodologically explicit, the contributions analyze textual and material sources related to these religious traditions in their cultural contexts.

The sources examined are predominantly products of patriarchal elite discourses requiring innovative approaches to unveil aspects of gender otherwise hidden.

This volume extends the discussion represented in the volume Gender and Second-Temple Judaism (2020) and highlights the fruitfulness of interdisciplinary research beyond anachronistic discipline distinctions.
