Royal Women at Ugarit: Reconceiving the House of the Father

Love and murder, internecine conflict, accusations of adultery, intrigue, and
diplomacy. Join us for a fascinating event in which Christine Thomas will
present the findings of her new book, Royal Women at Ugarit: Reconceiving the
House of the Father, inviting you to travel to Ugarit in Late Bronze Age Syria
to see how royal women were positioned at the center of their political world.
This insightful investigation of the pivotal roles women played in the
exercise of power challenges traditional gendered models for ancient Near
Eastern society, which in turn informs and transforms our understanding of the
portrayal of women of the Hebrew Bible.
