In Eve's Attire: Modesty, Judaism and the Female Body - Hardcover

by Delphine Horvilleur (Author)

Author Biography

Delphine Horvilleur is one of the few female Rabbis in France. She was ordained in America, as there was no possibility to study in France as a woman, and belongs to the Mouvement juif lib?ral de France. She drew media attention in the wake of the rise of antisemitic attacks and vandalism in France for her consistently compelling case for laicity and her strong feminist stance on social justice issues. She has written for the Washington Post and Haaretz, and is the author of En tenue d'Eve: f?minin, pudeur et juda?sme, and Comment les rabbins font des enfants, both published by Grasset.
