Discover the profound insights in 'Women at the Beginning' by Patrick Geary, a thought-provoking examination of women's roles across ancient and medieval literature. This engaging collection of four essays delves into how women have been portrayed in various cultural narratives from antiquity to the twelfth century. Geary artfully explores biblical, classical, and medieval myths—unpacking figures like Eve, Mary, the Amazons, and princesses—while confronting the realities of actual women in those societies. This unique approach intertwines literary critique with historical context, uncovering the often marginal roles women occupied in origin legends. Unlike typical analyses, this book not only addresses female representation but also the ideologies of male authors who shaped these narratives. Geary presents a nuanced exploration of the ambivalence men faced regarding women's identities and roles, making this essential reading for anyone interested in feminist literary criticism, gender studies, and the history of women's narratives. Expand your understanding of women's contributions to history and culture with 'Women at the Beginning.' Perfect for scholars, students, and anyone passionate about women's rights and representation in literature. This meticulously researched piece from Princeton University Press is a valuable addition to your library.Shipping Notes

Wonderful formula, questionable packaging?
Trying to find a moisturizer for my combination skin and so far so good! Very light weight and not sticky. Has a very light citrus smell but not bothersome. Will probably continue to purchase because my skin seems to respond well to this company’s products.
I don't like that the product looks… empty or used upon opening my package. The tube just feels half empty… opened it and there’s a seal so I guess it wasn’t used. Just wish they filled the tube or something.

Feels refreshing, but not for super sensitive skin
I wanted to love this, but my rosacea prone skin is just too sensitive for it. Pretty sure it has caused some minor break outs, as well. A blemish or 2 seem to pop up shortly after using (I really haven’t had much of a problem lately with blemishes, and this is the only thing that had changed in my skin care routine). It also may be making my rosacea flare more, making my face appear redder. It feels great going on, very refreshing, but I did notice the tiniest bit of stinging, which tells me it is irritating my super sensitive skin. The smell is ok, but not as amazing as some made it out to be. I don’t think my skin would tolerate using it daily, I currently only use it once a twice a week, before bed. I love how cooling it is. It is great for layering under, when you need a little boost of hydration and is great for summer. It is on the much lighter side, as far as hydration goes, being that it is a gel.

Amazing!
I found this item online as a possible dupe to farmacy honey halo due to some matching ingredients. I have sensitive skin and prone to closed comedones. This is a fantastic moisturizer and definitely will be my new go to.

Happy face
I've been using this for the past six months and it's easily become my favorite moisturizer. It smells great and the gel consistency is just right, not watery or really thick. It's light, but a little bit sticky. My favorite thing is it doesn't sit on top of your skin and smear off like I've had other moisturizers do. Like If you run your finger down the side of your face you get a weird residue, like you would with sunblock. None of that here! I don't wear a full face of makeup, but as someone who has to create my own eyebrows daily the pens and pencils don't weakly smear on top like they do with the other moisturizers that coat your face. The lines turn out very smooth and opaque.
