In this innovative and important work Christl M. Maier argues that
the way Israelites in the exilic and post-exilic periods spoke of
Jerusalem as gendered space??????a "female" city??????helps us
trace reactions to the crisis of exile and the emergence of a new
national-religious identity. Taking up the Zion tradition in Isaiah
of Jerusalem, Jeremiah, Hosea, Ezekiel, and Lamentations, Maier
explores motifs of Jerusalem as mother, daughter, bride, whore, and
injured victim. Her interpretation of gendered metaphors also helps
us understand contemporary political and religious constructions of
gender and political power.
