In this vision, she sees Eve and the Virgin Mary and realizes that without Eve's transgression of eating from the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden, humankind would not have recognized Mary's holiness. This theory prioritizes the contributions of female figures from Christianity over male figures, and the author emphasizes her point by referring to Jesus only as "the fruit of Mary's womb" (117) and not by name.
