The Goddess, Women’s Roles, and the Patriarchy
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page
report discusses the fact that stories and legends of the Goddess
abound in virtually every culture throughout the world.
Archaeological findings throughout the world have revealed an
amazing degree of repetition in terms of symbolic associations
between the female form, ritualistic objects, apparent practices,
and how all of life is related to and dependent on that which
creates and sustains life. Eventually invasions from north to
south and changes in male perceptions about procreation, caused
the mother-goddess to be replaced by gods of war and the
patriarchal system. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
