Title: The Resurrection of Mary Magdalene
Description: Continuum, 2002. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 379. The controversy surrounding Dan Brown's novel The Da Vinci Code has intensified interest in Mary Magdalene and Jane Schaberg provides an authoritative source for a deeper understanding and re-assessment of this popular figure. Within a progressive feminist framework, The Resurrection of Mary Magdalene approaches Christian Testament sources through analysis of legend, archaeology, and gnostic/apocryphal traditions. This is the story of the suppression and distortion of a powerful woman leader - Schaberg presents Mary Magdalene as successor to Jesus in a challenging alternative to the Petrine primacy. A work of controversial and creative scholarship. ISBN: 9780826413833. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
