After Eve takes a new look at the ways in which women have been discussed in Jewish and Christian thought. Uplifting, provoking and even at times amusing, here ten well-known theologians - women and men - take us from Biblical times to modern feminism. Topics include Paul on sexual identity, feminist interpretation of the Old and New Testaments, the Holy Spirit as feminine in the early church, St Jerome and Karl Barth on women and a modern reappraisal of beliefs about the Virgin Mary. Ordinary readers as well as students of religion will find this a stimulating opportunity to see how theologians have addressed - and do address - a topic of great interest to us today.
