A woman is a series of shifting possibilities. The frame that contained her in the morning can transform into something completely different by afternoon. The roles she’s called on to play mutate over the years and throughout a lifetime. And her very place in the world is called into constant negotiation. In this swirl of contradictions, finding her own self—her core—can be a bewildering journey. Woman Prime is about the fundamental human wish to settle into an authentic self, a “prime” identity. It follows one woman through her roles—child, adult, wife, mother—and shows how she must remake herself through each new stage. Like many women, the speaker believed that leaving her parent’s home, falling in love, and raising children would reveal the essential core of herself. Instead, she learns that those she loves can fail her and that she must embrace a world full of flickering and conflicting expectations for women. Woman Prime is about every woman and no woman—a mutable voice that will still resonate with anyone trying to reconcile their flawed and complicated selves.

The goal of this dissertation is to provide an in-depth comparative study of certain motifs and scenes found in both Aegean and Near Eastern glyptic art traditions (c.2000 -1400 B.C.), with the aim of gaining a better understanding of their differences and the contributing cultural causes for the disparities. Themes examined within this study include Hunt, Chariots, Combat, and a select number of animal motifs - wild boar, goat, bull and birds. The themes of Hunt, Chariots, and Combat were chosen based upon the fact that these particular motifs are conspicuously absent from the Aegean glyptic art repertoire prior to the MM III era, but present in Near Eastern glyptic art, at least in some form, from the late fourth millennium B.C. and onward. The Animal theme was selected as a focus of the study based upon the observation that scenes of animals in nature are preeminent in Aegean glyptic art but a rare occurrence in the glyptic art of the Near East, except in the form of secondary motifs. For the purpose of comparative analysis, the specific animal motifs chosen for this study are those which are most frequently represented in the glyptic art repertoire of both regions over a long span of time. Following the Introduction, which includes a survey of scholarship, the study is organized into a series of four chapters that cover specific themes, with each theme consisting of an Aegean and a Near Eastern section. Each section consists of a presentation of representative seals with an accompanying brief description, followed by a comprehensive examination of the particular theme or motif as found in each region. This examination explores such topics as the initial appearance of the motif in the region's glyptic art repertoire, its appearance in other art forms, the evolution of the motif and its associated cultural meanings over time as interpreted by various scholars, and the significance as well as the associated meanings of secondary motifs found within each scene. Utilizing this information I then interpret the glyptic scenes, discuss their possible role in the related culture, and offer an explanation as to what each can tell us about their host society. This information is also provided in comparative tables that are provided for each motif or scene examined within the study.
Why do religious people choose paths that lead to their deaths as martyrs? Why do some who are killed for their faith become known and revered while others do not? Gail Streete asks these important and disturbing questions in the context of early Christianity, looking at the stories of martyred women such as Thecla, Perpetua, and Felicitas--women whose stories helped shape Christian faith for centuries, yet are all but forgotten in the modern world. Streete reclaims these stories and relates them to tragic instances of martyrdom in our own world, pulling from stories as diverse as the victims of Columbine and female suicide attackers in the Muslim world. What do their deaths mean, and why do we find their stories so moving?
This book examines the image of the savior and the experience of salvation, two concepts that are inextricably entwined. Gail Streete asserts that Christianity set aside female images of salvation by emphasizing the maleness of Jesus. She draws on solid knowledge of the Jewish sources of Christianity and from the Greek-speaking classical world, from which Christianity assimilated so much, to show that the image of God could be seen as both male and female.The Gender and the Biblical Tradition series brings to a wide audience important new discoveries concerning women and the Bible, ancient Israel, and early Christianity. The books explore the role of sexuality within the biblical tradition and document the continuing influence of biblical treatments of gender on subsequent life and thought.
