M.A. students at the end of the academic year at the Department of Gender Studies at the University of Haifa composed limericks for the lecturers of the various courses. One of the five limericks was dedicated to Mariana Ruah-Midbar, who taught them a course on gender, religion and spirituality.
Marianna [The following lines are a translation]
A woman is a woman and is also a deity,
And in order to affirm this, bonfires are lit,
They taste some milk, chant hymns,
And Marianna’s braid
They almost burn down.
See the (Hebrew) limericks in the gallery.
