A Feminist Companion to Genesis (Feminist Companion to the Bible (Second) series)

Since the publication of the first Genesis volume in The Feminist Companion series in 1993, feminist scholars have become both prolific and better recognized, and it has now become possible to present a new volume on Genesis, consisting of recent unpublished essays on the topic. The essays in this collection are grouped under the headings 'Creation and Paradise Revisited', 'Mal[e]Practices' and 'Female Modes' and are written from perspectives gleaned from disciplines such as psychology, art history and art criticism, sociology, anthropology and literary criticism. Some of the essays presented here constitute a dialogue with earlier papers in the first Genesis companion, making the two volumes an indispensable resource for reclaiming the female heritage found in the book of Genesis.
