The Female Hero in Folklore and Legend,
This review is from: The Female Hero in Folklore and Legend (Quokka Book) (Mass Market Paperback)
From the beginning of time, man has been in awe of the mysteries of nature which seem to elevate woman to a position much nearer to the gods than any other we know. It is no small wonder, then, that so many legends center on sex.
In The Female Hero in Folklore and Legend distinguished folklorist Tristan Potter Coffin considers the most legendary women - Cleopatra, Helen of Troy, Guinevere, Eleanor of Aquataine, Mata Hari, and Sarah Bernhardt among them - separating the fact from the fiction that surrounds these full-blooded figures who had their faults but nonetheless achieved far-reaching influence over their men and their worlds. --- from book's back cover |
