The proceedings of the Würzburg graduate colloquium “The Perception of Gender Differences in Religious Symbolic Systems” offer various mainly pre- and early-historic examples of historically specific gender constellations. The detailed studies of archeological and literary artifacts illustrate quite exciting dimensions that are often unknown. Only one article in the anthology deals with the phenomenon of the honor killing that is announced in the title of the book. Faced with rather loose connections between the individual articles, it is up to the reader to find one cohesive context (based on a suggested yet barely outlined concept of emancipation) for the varying approaches.
