Description
In creative, analytical retellings of biblical tales about women, Aschkenasy demonstrates how recurring situations, dilemmas, and modes of conduct represent the politics of women's realities in premodern civilization-how women's lives in those times were characterized by social and legal limitations which some accepted and others challenged.
