Editorial Reviews

Review

’This book insightfully places the myths and images of goddesses and madonnas in their cultural contexts. We are in the authors' debt for assembling these scattered pieces so we might imagine a complex tapestry .The clash of symbols and cultures between the Europeans and the conquered peoples was both violent and subjugating. Yet the hybridization of these wildly different cultural images points a way to a present retrieval of the feminine sacred in our fractured world.’ Terrence W. Tilley, Fordham University, USA '... this is not a typical spiritual journey to the goddess book. Preliminary chapters detail the multiple motifs of the goddess of pre-Hispanic Mexico from the beneficent fecundity to violent destruction, as well as the history and iconography of the Virgin Mary as victorious champion and compassionate mother... The volume is highlighted throughout with black-and-white and color illustrations, including many photographed by the authors. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and above.' Choice 'Aztec Goddesses and Christian Madonnas is accessible, clearly written, and well organized. It is also lavishly illustrated, containing close to three dozen color plates and more than a hundred black-and-white images. It is a useful reference source for studies of the sacred female in medieval and early modern Catholic art as much as in Mesoamerican art and ritual.' CAA Reviews ’I applaud Kroger and Granziera on this work. This book will serve well as a textbook to introduce religious images and concepts in early Mexico, mythologies of goddesses from various parts of the world and how Madonnas have related historically with the various mythologies and cultural contexts in which they are found. This co-authored text confirms many thoughts I have held about the roles of goddesses and Madonnas in Mexico. Thankfully, this team has conducted both thorough and in-depth research in creating a beautiful and comprehensive book.’ Journal of the American
