Description
Women in Their Place: Paul and the Corinthian Discourse of Gender and Sanctuary Space, by Jorunn Okland. JSNTSup 269. London: T&T Clark, 2005. Pp. x + 328. $150.00/$69.95. ISBN 0567080757/0567084078. In this revision of her 2000 doctoral thesis (from the University of Oslo), Okland offers an often refreshing and useful analysis of not only Paul's first letter to the Corinthians but also a wider set of texts that reflect and construct an ancient discourse of gender and sanctuary space. These two links are not incidental, but crucial for Okland's study. Her understanding of a particular text (1 Cor 11-14) cannot be divorced from a careful analysis of a range of material texts, while the discourse of sanctuary space cannot be explained without recourse to its interconnections with ancient gender discourse. This highlights how space is gendered in antiquity, particularly as it is related to conceptions of the greater order of the cosmos.
