"Uncovers not only what women are doing in myth, but why they still matter today" Emily Hauser, bestselling author of Mythica

Homemaker. Virgin. Warrior. Witch. Madwoman. Monster.

The labels applied to mythological women echo throughout history. These archetypes, created in the Ancient World, still resonate today.

From the stories of the virgin goddesses Athena and Artemis, the contrasting depictions of wifely duty in Clytemnestra and Penelope, the ecstatic frenzies of the Maenads, Echidnathe so-called mother of all monstersand the misunderstood Medusa, Ancient Myths and Legends Without Men reveals a world where powerful women were both worshipped and feared.

Accompanied with beautiful illustrations throughout, uncover the real stories behind the women of Ancient Mythology and find what they can teach us about being a woman today.

Discover the goddesses, warriors, witches, and monsters who shaped and subverted womanhood from the very beginning ...

Arvustused

Mara Golds Ancient Myths & Legends Without Men offers an intriguing collage of womens roles in myth that bridges past and present, to uncover not only what women are doing in myth, but why they still matter today. In so doing, the volume offers a relevant, readable and beautifully-presented overview of many women of ancient myth, opening the lid on womens tales and showing the diverse ways in which their stories can and should be re-interpreted. -- Dr. Emily Hauser, author of Mythica
