Women in Deuteronom History

Catalog description

Taught by GTU. This course studies the Dueteronomistic History with particular focus on the stories of women in the texts and how they may be interpreted by contemporary audiences. Socio-historical research will be used to elaborate upon the context of women within these narratives, providing grounding for the consideration of what alternative readings are possible when a feminist critical lens is applied to the text. This course is taught by PhD student Sarah Kohles with a Newhall Award, under the supervision of Gina Hens-Piazza.
