A review by ipacho
Diosas. Misterios de lo divino femenino by Joseph Campbell

5.0

There is a constant quote from Goethe throughout the book: "the eternal feminine draws us up", and it summarizes this voyage through history looking for the Godess and how it survived up to our days. There ate all the Zeitgeist comparisons of christianity with middle eastern religions, but Campbell's position goes beyond mere criticism: his is one of understanding the various sincretic procesess that ocurred with and within it, so the Godess survived. Amazing and powerful read.
