{"product_id":"ephesian-women-in-greco-roman-and-elif-hilal-karaman-9783161556531","title":"Ephesian Women in Greco-Roman and Early Christian Perspective","description":"In this volume, Elif Hilal Karaman examines the lives of Ephesian women in their historical and social contexts, considering in particular their roles as mothers, wives, teachers, and individuals in the private and public spheres. She presents Greco-Roman and early Christian sources relevant to Ephesus and relating to women, including more than 300 Ephesian inscriptions, and analyses them comparatively. By doing this she illuminates the impact of early Christianity upon the roles of women. The evidence presented demonstrates the extent to which early Christian authors utilized Greco-Roman cultural elements to construct a social background for the nascent Christian communities for whom they wrote. Elif Hilal Karaman's work thus advocates for the interpretation of early Christian texts in conversation with local archaeological and literary evidence in order to develop more nuanced understandings of the social and historical contexts of these important works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elif Hilal Karaman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3161556534\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783161556531\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mohr Siebeck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.10w x 0.50d","brand":"Elif Hilal Karaman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075202150655,"sku":"9783161556531","price":112.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_717c3abb-bffc-475b-b656-c7c006680339.jpg?v=1685458197","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ephesian-women-in-greco-roman-and-elif-hilal-karaman-9783161556531","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
