ESSAY ON: Role of the Feminine in Ancient Creation Myth

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares 3 creation stories. In ancient creation mythology, the role of feminine deities, and women in general, is to provide a sense of conflict, which serves to both heighten the drama of the story as well as provide a rationale that justifies the societal status quo of male domination. This pattern is evident in three ancient creation myths, “Enuma Elish” (ancient Babylonian epic), Hesiod’s “Theogony,” and Book of Genesis (ancient Hebrew). No additional sources cited.
