In both cases, anorexia represents a woman's "war against bodily urges" in a search for autonomy from a suffocating, male-dominated society. While holy anorexia did little to weaken the patriarchy, it did create a new model of holiness - the ascetic female of absolute self-sacrifice and willpower - an image finally replaced centuries later by the ideal of female saint as do-gooder (Mother Teresa).
