Dr. Emily J. Gathergood is a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham (2022-2025), working on women and gender in ancient Jewish and early Christian texts and artefacts, with a particular interest in the construction of women’s bodies in relation to salvation. Her doctoral project, The Midwifery of God, focuses on the early reception of Eve’s childbearing ‘curse’ (Genesis 3:16) in a cluster of texts which envisage its divine reversal.
