It has had a very rich reception history over many centuries. Genesis 2-3 formulates fundamental premises and problems of human self-understanding in the Western world. Why is the world in which we live seen as a \"paradise lost\"? Why might human knowledge be problematic? Why does human society have a patriarchal structure? Why is human existence limited in terms of time? Using a multidisciplinary approach, this volume explores the historical meanings and the many ways in which this narrative has been received.
