Description:
Goddesses, feminine images of the divine, often are labeled as one-dimensional forces of nature or fertility. In examining a number of goddesses whose primary role is sovereignty, contributors to this volume go beyond the narrow vision of the past to discover the rich diversity of goddess traditions. Drawn from a variety of cultural and historical settings, the goddesses described here include Inanna of ancient Sumer; Mazu, a goddess still worshipped in southern China; Oshun of Nigeria; and Cihuacoatl of pre-historical America.
