"Melania the Elder and her granddaughter Melania the Younger were major figures in
early Christian history, using their wealth, status, and forceful personalities to
shape the development of nearly every aspect of the religion we now know as Christianity.
This volume examines the influence that these two women had on the development of
Christianity and provides an insightful portrait of the their legacies in the modern
world. Instead of the traditionally patriarchal view, this perspective gives a poignant
and sometimes surprising view of how the rise of Christian institutions in the Roman
Empire shaped the understanding of women's roles in the larger world."--Provided by
