The Proverbial Woman

By Amy J. Chase

Publisher: Fortress Press

Imprint: Fortress Press

The Proverbial Woman offers a narrative and dialogical approach to the text of Proverbs 31 that unearths the poetry's social, sexual, and political silences and silencings. Chase excavates the power dynamics that promote elite ideologies even as gaps, ambiguities, and contradictions enable marginalized perspectives within the text to resist them.
