A note I made at the time said that some of the 'herstory' was probably a bit suspect but I thought there are some interesting ideas in it. ( ) I have mixed feelings about this book. Sjoo injects her own personal animosity towards masculinity in general. Calling her a man-hating feminist is not a stretch. She even blames the death of her son (killed by a car) on the "patriarchal technology of the automobile." She even suggests that the black plague was a "psychosomatic" symptom of the patriarchal Church's disdain for the flesh and material world. It's laughable, but her radical man-hating church-hating feminism has influenced the politics of the left today to the point where much of what is in this book isn't seen as radical anymore. That makes this book an important read if only for political history's sake. Also , if you can get past the brazen man-hating, this book manages to presents the Goddess and feminine archetypes in religion in a proper light using a lot of anthropology. This book could have been great had it not been so tainted by the author's hatred for all things masculine. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
This classic exploration of the Goddess through time and throughout the world draws on religious, cultural, and archaeological sources to recreate the Goddess religion that is humanity’s heritage. Now, with a new introduction and full-color artwork, this passionate and important text shows even more clearly that the religion of the Goddess--which is tied to the cycles of women’s bodies, the seasons, the phases of the moon, and the fertility of the earth--was the original religion of all humanity.
