Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - minimal berieben und bestoßen, Kopfschnitt leicht angegraut, handschriftliche Anmerkung auf Schmutztitel, sonst sehr guter Zustand und innen sauber / minimally rubbed and bumped, top edge slightly grayed, handwritten note on half title, otherwise very good condition and clean inside. - Drawing on archaeology, women's studies, biblical research, anthropology and her own research on rock carvings at women's shrines, Abrahamsen offers new and rich insights into the religious roles of women in Philippi during the early Christian era. She portrays a world in which, although it was patriarchal, women still held religious power and the freedom to pursue their art in the service of religion. She then demonstrates that women brought those practices and roles with them into the church. Women and Worship thus continues transforming our understanding of women in the early church. A scholarly book, it is accessible to anyone who wishes to learn more of women's spiritual and religious heritage. / TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction I. Philippi in its Socio-Historical Setting II.
