| Summary: | This book is on how books were produced, rewritten, and reinterpreted in the early Christian period and how books and especially textual variants highlight disputes concerning women. Haines-Eitzen organized her book into two parts, each consisting of three chapters. In Part I, chapter 1 is on the relationship between women and book production, transmission, and consumption; chapter 2 is on the figure of women readers in ascetic literature; in chapter 3, Haines-Eitzen argues against the accepted view that the Apocryphal Acts are women’s literature. |
