What does it mean to be humble like Christ? In this book, Bernadette McNaryZak explores various concepts of Christian humility in late antiquity. To help the reader deepen their understanding of Christian humility, McNaryZak takes a close look at some of the ways different types of humility operated as a relational value in specific contexts involving ascetic women. With this approach, the author shows how, at the very margins of a maledominated culture, the ascetic woman represented a form of renunciation of self that enabled her to function as a symbol of Christian humility for females and males alike. A life that is both affirmative of biblical precedent and subversive of societal norms thereby becomes a life lived in deliberate aspiration toward an unrealized eschatology.
