N2  - The less-discussed character in the Bible is the woman: two talking animals therein have sometimes received more page space.

Biblical women are compared to mythical characters from the wider Middle East or from contemporary literature, and feminist/womanist perspectives are discussed alongside traditional and theological perspectives
