"Self-restraint may appear to be the opposite of erotic desire ; yet Diane Lipsett shows the surprising and complex interplay of erotic desire and self-restraint in three ancient tales of conversion. She offers nuanced literary analysis of The Shepherd of Hermas, from the Apostolic Fatehrs, the Acts of Paul and Thecla, from the Apocryphal Acts of the Apostles, and Joseph and Aseneth, often considered an ancient Jewish novella. Lipsett examines codes concerning marriage and continence, virginity, and sexual renunciation in the three tales. She finds that 'conversion' - a marked change in a protagonist's piety and identity - is in part an effect of story, a function of narrative textures, coherence, and closure."--Front inside flap of dust jacket.
