Description: |
The impetus for this book is the realization that within early Christianity, which is characterised by healing, no women are explicitly commissioned to heal. It begins with a search for the women who were healers in the Graeco-Roman world of the late Hellenistic and early Roman period, and finding them honoured in inscriptions. |
