Sarah Klegg

Historian Sarah Klegg, author of "Woman's Lore: 4,000 Years of Sirens, Serpents and Succubi," dives into the myth of Lilith, Adam's rebellious first wife. She reveals how Lilith's story reflects ancient anxieties about women and sexuality. Discussing her evolution from demoness to symbol of empowerment, Klegg highlights Lilith's defiance of patriarchal norms and her fascinating origins. The conversation also playfully explores the notorious semen-stealing lore and the cultural implications of her character in contemporary discussions on gender dynamics.
