abstract Every religion has had its paradigm of the 'ideal' woman. Tahirih, the archetypal paradigm of womanhood in the Baha'i Faith, presents a startling contrast to the former models. She is remembered by Baha'is not as the ideal wife, mother or daughter, but as the courageous, eloquent and assertive religious innovator whose actions severed the early Babis from Islam completely.
