Gallery One Encountering Eve: A Guide

The opening chapter of this book offers a guide for the reader’s encounters with Eve’s afterlives. It introduces the subsequent sections of the book as functioning akin to galleries within an exhibition. The reader is informed of how chapters that follows the introduction curates a different thematic image of Eve, with the different parts within these sections providing the reader with interpretations, intertexts, and imaginings of the Bible’s first woman that have led to becoming her to be framed as a femme fatale, but that can also allow her to be viewed as a wise woman and a morning mother.
