520    A major new work by a leading historian and pioneer in 
       women's studies, The Creation of Patriarchy is a radical 
       reconceptualization of Western civilization that makes 
       gender central to its analysis. Gerda Lerner argues that 
       male dominance over women is not "natural" or biological, 
       but the product of an historical development begun in the 
       second millennium BC in the Ancient Near East. As 
       patriarchy as a system of organizing society was 
       established historically, she contends, it can also be 
       ended by the historical process. Focusing on the 
       contradiction between women's central role in creating 
       society and their marginality in the meaning-giving 
       process of definition and interpretation, Lerner explores 
       such fascinating questions as: What can account for 
       women's exclusion from the historical process? What could 
       explain the long delay-more than 3,500 years-in women's 
       coming to consciousness of their own subordinate position?
       She goes back to the cultures of the earliest known 
       civilizations-those of the ancient Near East-to discover 
       the origins of the major gender metaphors of Western 
       civilization. Using historical, literary, archaeological, 
       and artistic evidence, she then traces the development of 
       these ideas, symbols, and metaphors and their 
       incorporation into Western civilization as the basis of 
       patriarchal gender relations.
