The death of the other is not part ot the story. As the world knows, their mother was called Mary. She was the daughter of Joachim and Anna, a rich, pious and elderly couple who had never had a child, much as they prayed for one. It was con sidered shameful that Joachim had never fathered any offspring, and he felt the shame keenly. Anna was just as unhappy. One day she saw a nest of sparrows in a laurel tree, and wept that even the birds and the beasts could produce young, when she could not. Finally, however, possibly because ot their fervent prayers, Anna conceived a child, and in due course 'she gave birth to a girl. Joachim and Anna vowed to dedicate her to the Lord God, so they took her to the temple and offered her to the high priest Zachanas, who kissed her and blessed her and took her into his care. -

Lilith – a Mythological Study
University of • Bedfordshire LILITH – A MYTHOLOGICAL STUDY TRACEY LOUISE SMITH This is a digitised version of a dissertation submitted to the University of Bedfordshire. It is available to view only. This item is subject to copyright. LILITH – A MYTHOLOGICAL STUDY * TRACEY LOUISE SMITH * THESIS ACCOMPANYING CHRYSALIS A Thesis submitted to the University of Bedfordshire, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master Of Arts by Research in Creative Writing * Submitted December 2008 1 Abstract Lilith – A Mythological Study is the accompanying thesis to my creative piece, Chrysalis, a novel which centres on the protagonist Melissa and her possession by the demoness Lilith. My thesis is an exploration of Lilith throughout mythology, from her early incarnations in Mesopotamia, through Christian texts, to Jewish folktales, looking at how the various elements of her legend, namely as a succubus, demoness and child killer, have evolved. Here I also explore a number of other myths which portray demonised female figures, and compare them to Lilith, posing the question: is Lilith such an archetypal character that she sparks similar myths across the ancient world, or is it merely that strong women were easy to demonise in male-dominated religions? In order to answer this, I go on to study how Lilith’s femininity has contributed to her myth, and how women in general have been demonised by patriarchal and religious societies. Through this I also touch upon the subject of feminist representation by discussing the concepts of the ‘other’ and abjection, and how Lilith has become an icon for modern feminist movements. -
Introduction
INTRODUCTION Welcome to the new Scholastic Children’s Books catalogue for 2015. Here at Scholastic, we have a simple idea at the heart of everything we do. We love kids! And we hope that we know kids better than anyone. Real kids: funny, silly, sometimes tired and grumpy, hugely curious, hugely imaginative. We are very proud that Scholastic’s 2015 list has the biggest kid appeal yet. Across the country, little kids snuggling up want bedtime with Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. The Scarecrows’ Wedding is their beautiful, pastoral picture book: an instant classic. Mermaid by TV presenter Cerrie Burnell will be another big hit, a sparkling picture book all about friendship and underwater adventure. And for bedtime fun, Alex T. Smith gives a big twist to a classic fairy tale, with wild animals and doughnuts in Little Red and the Very Hungry Lion. What about big brothers and sisters? There’s not a kid aged 7 and up who doesn’t love Tom Gates. As our favourite review says, ”Get this book, it is amazing! You would be so unlucky not to it’s extremely funny and smart.” In 2015 we have Yes No Maybe coming from Tom’s multi-talented creator, Liz Pichon. We’ve also acquired a debut by two of the funniest guys around, Sam & Mark. Jokes and pranks abound in The Adventures of Long Arm. Every kid knows that Captain Underpants is funnier than homework, so we have a brand-new Captain Underpants book for laughing your head off before spellings. For decades now, Scholastic has been publishing the most imaginative books for tweens and young adults. -
