Women and Miracles Stories A Multidisciplinary Exploration

This book contains a multidisciplinary collection of studies on women in miracle stories found in texts ranging from religious classics to contemporary literary fiction. By including research on miracle stories in contemporary fiction written by women this book also wants to acknowledge and research the disputed status of 'miracles' as well of 'women' in our present society which is moving from modernity to post-modernity. Please note that "Women and Miracle Stories" is previously published by Brill in hardback (ISBN 90 04 16681 8, still available).
