Description
Éste es un libro único.;Cuenta, por primera vez, la historia completa de lo femenino a través de las distintas ideas religiosas donde ha ido evolucionando la imagen mítica de este principio: desde las diosas paleolíticas, o Istar en Mesopotamia, Isis en Egipto o las diosas del mundo clásico, hasta Israel, donde lo femenino se oculta, para finalizar con la vuelta de la diosa madre en las figuras de María en el cristianismo y de Sofía en los gnósticos. Este libro, y sus más de 400 ilustraciones, explica cómo el mito originario de la diosa se perdió y cómo la divinidad masculina fue desplazando su papel por la necesidad de situarlo en el nuevo contexto de la evolución de la conciencia humana. Ahora, cuando los modelos de lo masculino y lo femenino están más confusos, cuando hemos desacralizado la naturaleza y somos incapaces de contemplar la vida como una unidad viviente, quizá se haga necesario conocer a fondo cuál es la naturaleza de la antigua diosa madre, para comprender mejor las implicaciones psicológicas que ha supuesto su pérdida para el ser humano.
