Wed, Sept 17, Sr. Mary Criscione: Mary Magdalene, History and Myth
We will consider the various faces of Mary Magdalene to be found in early Christian literature and imagery: apostle, teacher, companion to Jesus, witness to mystery. What can we tell about her and the early communities that claimed her as hero and model? How did she end up to be the "woman in red" in later Christian imagination?
