Woman at the Window: Biblical Tales of Oppression and Escape - Paperback
by Nehama Aschkenasy (Author)
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.
