Full Description
Contemporary literature displays the modern controversy about the nature and meaning of manhood and womanhood, and much of it presents a modern, feminist viewpoint in direct tension with the Biblical heritage of the West. Dr. Beth Impson explores how the "gender controversies" evident in modern society show up in contemporary literature (both for good and ill), and how literature can provide an effective resource for Biblical models of masculinity and femininity.
