Dartmouth professor of religion Susan Ackerman will revisit the story of the biblical Eve in a talk at Manchester’s First Congregational Church (3624 Main St., (Rt. 7A). Her talk, “All About Eve,” is part of the Vermont Humanities Council’s First Wednesdays lecture series and is free and open to the public. Talks in Manchester are hosted by Manchester Community Library.
Ackerman will consider both traditional and contemporary interpretations of the Adam and Eve story and how recent scholarship on women and the Bible pushes us to rethink our common assumptions about Eve.
